Preaching

Preaching is the art of unveiling the hidden truths of the Bible, helping people understand God’s Word more deeply. It involves breaking down complex scriptures into relatable and practical teachings that touch hearts and transform lives. Romans 10:14 (NCV) says, "But before people can trust in the Lord for help, they must believe in him; and before they can believe in him, they must hear about him; and for them to hear about the Lord, someone must tell them.” What a great verse.

A good preacher explains and brings the text to life, showing its relevance to our everyday experiences. Through preaching, God’s Word becomes a guide that speaks directly to our situations, offering wisdom, encouragement, and correction.

Preaching also builds faith in listeners. By revealing the depth and richness of Scripture, it helps believers grow spiritually and equips them to live out their faith with conviction and purpose.
