Kevin DeYoung features in this month’s Preaching Matters video from St Helen’s Bishopsgate UK’s blog.
DeYoung talks about both the benefits and the drawbacks of the method, helpfully pointing out that verse by verse exposition is actually topical preaching.
He indicates where topical series have a place as well.
The closing material is especially helpful, do we depend on the text or illustrative material from outside (or the manner of our presentation) to make an impact?
“Our preaching is best when it is closest to the text.”
