The Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 1:21close1 Corinthians 1:21 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. (ESV) close1 Corinthians 1:21close1 Corinthians 1:21 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. (ESV) 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. (ESV) , “Since God in His wisdom saw to it that the world would never find Him through human wisdom, He has used our foolish preaching to save all who believe.” Preaching God’s message is the ultimate responsibility of a pastor. There is really nothing else like it and I am humbled by the privilege God has given me.
The vast majority of these messages are expositions of Scripture. I do not claim to be an expert in the discipline of preaching God’s Word by any means, but I do try to remain true to the original context and intent of the passage. But we must remember, not only does Paul call it foolish preaching (meaning that the message of the cross is foolish to those who do not believe – 1:18), but he also asserts that God does not call many who are wise, or mighty, or noble to preach His message (1:26); and since I fit into the category of what Paul just described, my prayer, and the prayer I ask of you, is that the words I preach would not be my own, but that the Holy Spirit would take control and work through me in spoken word, as well as the written versions.
The transcripts presented here are the thoughts and Scriptures that had been prepared for the sermon of that date. They will generally be the direction I took during the preaching time. Sometimes the written form will be very close to what was spoken, but other times, when the Holy Spirit moves me in a different direction on a particular evening, the written words will not match up well with what was spoken. Either way I trust these transcripts will help enrich your passion for God and motivate you to study His Word. I would recommend that you read AND listen to the sermons to get the full effect and to enhance your comprehension of the principles set forth.
Some of the sermons are now available to listen to online and/or download for you to copy onto a CD and listen to at your convenience (If a sermon or series is not available for download yet, and you would like it to be, please let us know – we are primarily focusing on keeping up with each current series but would be happy to start uploading from our archives if there is any interest).
