vintage preaching

Posted by Dennis in communication on 07 9th, 2009 | 2 responses

here are some more lessons I am learning and currently applying as I read the book VINTAGE CHURCH by Mark Driscoll

6 questions as I prepare my message

1. The Biblical Question: What does Scripture say?

- full concentration on the passage

- read different translations  - ESV, NKJV, NIV -

2. The Theological Question: What does Scripture mean?

- interpret what is said so that we know what it means pic

3. The Memorable Question: What is my Hook?

- it could be a word, image, concept, doctrine, emotion.

- It makes your message memorable. -

- LA Mumar terms it your HANDLE

4. The Apologetical Question: Why do we resist this truth?

- people will not simply embrace the truth because they are sinners

- predict their objections so we can answer the truth and remove their resistance to get them to embrace God’s truth

- confrontational and hit a nerve. OUCH! is what you want to hear from the people at this point.

5. The Missional Question: Why does this matter?

- why is this important and urgent?

- Connect Scripture to God’s character, the nature of the gospel, mission in our city, quality of our lives.

- Lost people go to church and they want to hear what we stand for. I connect Scripture with my date night, my disciplining my kids, my daddy dates, my dad’s upbringing, how I handle sexual temptation, how I handle finances.

- you want them to know that the Word helps me in my life.

6. The Christological Question: How is Jesus the hero?

- Jesus connects the seeker and the believer. - The more you talk about Jesus – you hit both hearers.
