The ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLES of EXPOSITORY PREACHING

“With great joy I highly recommend this book to you. It will encourage and equip you for effectiveness in your preaching.”

— Dr. Elbert E. Elliott, BA, MA, MDiv, PhD

The greatest need at this crucial hour is to equip a new generation of God-gripped and Spirit-filled expository preachers throughout the world. I am convinced after four decades of preaching that if my preaching is not God-centered (biblical), the temptation is to substitute with man-centered preaching, manipulating the message with pop psychology, extra-biblical revelations, worldview options, opinions of man, gimmickries, dummy shows, and money tricks. Today, with this kind of ministry culture, many preachers have muffled and muted the biblical message to a tragic trend.

In contrast, the uniqueness of expository preaching is that the message (textual unit) is maximized and the preacher’s pedantry is minimized. In other words, the matter becomes more important than the manner (style). This generation deserves to hear the greatest expository sermons preached under the unction of the Holy Spirit. A serious study of this book will ignite your passion to “Preach the Word”  as an imperative from the Almighty God who inspired His Word by the Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16–4:2).
