Especially the Preaching

James Logan


Listen Later

Ben Ratliff sits down with James Logan, pastor of First Presbyterian Church in Hazlehurst, Mississippi. James shares his journey into pastoral ministry—from teaching Bible in private schools to discovering a call to pulpit ministry at RTS Jackson—and how that call has taken root in the rhythms of small-town church life.

Together, they discuss the heart of preaching as proclaiming Christ for the salvation of sinners and the sanctification of saints, the weekly grind and joy of sermon prep, and the irreplaceable role of pastoral presence in the community. James offers reflections on how soul care, congregation visits, and even youth group Bible studies bleed into his pulpit work—and how visiting shut-ins has become an unexpected proving ground for sermon clarity.
