128 | On Pulpit Ethics   Welcome to The On Preaching Podcast, the podcast dedicated to helping you preach faithfully, clearly, and better.  Whatever happened to pulpit ethics?  Pulpit ethics are pulpit manners which include dos and don'ts for those who stand in corporate worship to preach God's word. Unfortunately, we no longer have pulpits. We now have stages. We no longer have ethics. We not have platforms. But pulpit ethics still matter.  What are the basics of pulpit ethics?   Physical Posture Appropriate Attire Reverent Spech  Nonverbal Communication  Personal Distraction  Worship Participation  Spiritual Sensitivity   BOOK RECOMMENDATION: "Expositional Preaching" by David Helm  "Expository preaching is empowered preachign that rightfully submits the shape and emphasis of the sermon to the shape and emphasis of the biblical text. In that way, it brings out of the text what the Holy Spirit put there... and does not put into the text what the preacher things might be there." - David Helm  For more information and resources, visit hbcharlesjr.com

Welcome to The On Preaching Podcast, the podcast dedicated to helping you preach faithfully, clearly, and better.  In this episode, H.B. discusses theological disciplines for expository preaching.  As a student and advocate of expository preaching, I believe that it is the most faithful way to handle God's word.  The bottom line of this episode is that faithful exposition is theologically informed. It should be doctrinal, not merely devotional. Beyond the exegetical text work, theological reflection should shape your sermon preparation.  What are the theological disciplines for expository preaching?   Biblical Theology Historical Theology  Systematic Theology  Practical Theology  For contact, information, or resources, visit hbcharlesjr.com.     

#161 | Theological Disciplines for Expository Preaching

Welcome to The On Preaching Podcast, the podcast dedicated to helping you preach faithfully, clearly, and better.  In this episode, H.B. talks about how to find sermon illustrations.  We preachers often look for illustrative material by subject (prayer, love, forgiveness, etc). But there is another way. You can also look for illustrations by focusing on four persons or groups.   You. Somebody.  Nobody. Everybody.   For contact, information, or resources, visit hbcharlesjr.com.

#160 | 4 Sentences That Will Improve Your Preaching

Welcome to The On Preaching Podcast, the podcast dedicated to helping you preach faithfully, clearly, and better. In this episode, H.B. discusses how to overcome sermon writer's block. Writer's block typically refers to authors, composers, or artists. But it can also happen to preachers, with the accompanying spiritual implications.   You can struggle to understand the text, craft the message, or prepare yourself to preach. How do you overcome sermon writer's block?   Guard your heart. Plan your preaching.  Take a break.  Fight the resistance.  Practice purposeful distraction.  Keep on working.  Remember your why.   For contact, information, or resources, visit hbcharlesjr.com.
