Preaching and Teaching the Bible Evangelistically - René Breuel

Biblical preaching and teaching are not simply a matter of building up the church by instructing believers. They are a ministry of proclaiming what God has done in Christ. The Gospel should be at the centre of all true preaching. Yet the idea of preaching evangelistically can be daunting. How should we approach preaching the Bible to mixed audiences? How should we seek to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a culture that rejects any notion of Scriptural authority? In this talk, we are given instruction and examples which we will process in our learning community. Find more great talks like this at https://www.FOCLonline.org.
