Preaching is a living transaction between the preacher and those who are listening; the words we speak must represent that truth. So, when you sit down to prepare a sermon, write for the ear, not the eye.
The power of the pulpit resides neither in physical furnishings nor in preachers themselves, but in the Holy Spirit who empowers his servants to proclaim God’s timeless truth.

After reading the letters of Flannery O'Connor, Jeff Dye shares what he has learned about preaching, ministry, and life.
Even when your efforts are unbeknownst to others, the Lord knows. “God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them” (Hebrews 6:10).
RENEW.org is offering a Certificate in Theology (CIT) program that can offer transfer credits to students who desire to pursue Bible college or university degrees.
People need to experience purpose in their relationship with Christ and effective leaders must set goals that reflect their vision for the church in creating that purpose.
