Preaching to the Heart

The bible has something to say about the deepest needs of our lives. From it, comes the wisdom and power for daily living.

We should be reminded that preaching is not simply about recounting facts. Preaching should demonstrate how the bible applies to our lives. Not what is simply means, but what it means in our lives today.

If a passage doesn't affect the lives of listeners, I am afraid that we have not understood the meaning of the text to ourselves and to them. Lives should be changed by it.

A sermon that teaches much information but yet is unable to reach the heart loses it personal touch. Preach to the heart.
