Pulpit To Pew

Ep.10 - The Good Sermon (and Podcast) Recipe


Listen Later

In this episode, Rev. Beverly Gibson shares her favorite

podcasts, her philosophy of sermon style and delivery, and how to
prepare for a sermon (even when you don't feel so hot). Johnny gets
excited because he manages to get Shawn Mullins, Eric Clapton, and
J.J. Cale into this week's podcast.

Johnny was a sponsor for new church member Richie Scherer, and

Reverend Dean Beverly Gibson was actually sitting in the pews this
week for her daughter's confirmation. Bishop Russell Kendrick gave
a rousing sermon and beautiful service at Christ Church Cathedral's
11th Annual Celebration. Due to all the festivities, Rev. Gibson
suggested that we put together a Pulpit To Pew episode of some of
the bonus material she and Johnny have cut from other shows.
