Sermon Preparation: The Problem
Posted in Sermon Preparation on March 15th, 2010 by David Woods – Be the first to commentIn The Four Steps of Sermon Preparation I discuss Kenton C. Anderson’s method of sermon development which considers the tension of the authority of God’s Word as well as the apprehension of the listeners. In my application of this method, I have typically spent some amount of time trying to dig up the cultural and historical background of the text in order to understand “The Story.” In my search to understand “The Problem”, I have typically listed possible questions or objections my listeners may have. Recently, however, I have taken a different approach to figuring out “The Problem” that I believe has enriched my messages.
