“The
Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to preach good tidings to the poor;
He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.”
Isaiah 61:1-2
I love to proclaim this awesome gospel!
As a pastor for nearly 19 years, I preached and taught on a wide variety of topics. Now, while my teaching focuses mainly on worship and related topics, I find that my preaching ministry emphasizes the themes enumerated on our Values page: grace, joy, the Father-heart of God, etc. The teaching and preaching are very related, however, since revelation and understanding of the glories of God's salvation inspire a response of gratitude, awe and adoration. By magnifying the works of God in Christ, I seek not only to bring immediate grace to the hearers, but also to plant seeds of praise and thanksgiving in their hearts.
