If you have spent any time reading the material I provide to pastors, you know that I am a true believer when it comes to a very comprehensive approach to sermon preparation. In fact, the “Sermon-Coach Method of Sermon Preparation” depends on a pastor carefully planning every element of the worship service to coordinate with the sermon.
You would also not be at all surprised if I suggested that, as a pastor, you should carefully choose when to begin a sermon series in order to maximize its potential effect on the spiritual formation of the people in your congregation. That’s the subject of Podcast No. 48, which I’sve chosen to feature this week.
If you would like to hear my explanation for this concept, I urge you to click the link on this page that will take you to my Sermon-Coach.com website. Once there, you will be able to listen to this “Featured Podcast of the Week.”
No doubt you’ve heard the phrase: “Timing is everything!” That’s particularly true when it comes to choosing when to begin a new sermon series. After all, we pastors want to maximize the effectiveness of our sermons, especially when we work so hard to develop them.
I continue to feel very grateful and am humbled by the many positive comments about my latest book entitled The Sermon Sucking Black Hole—Why You Can’t Remember on Monday What Your Minister Preached on Sunday. This book is now available at Amazon.com by clicking here.
This book gives some solid tips to the people sitting in the congregation to help them remember what you’ve said from the pulpit when they come to worship services in the church where you serve as pastor.
