Preaching Is Truth Through Personality An Interview With DR. Chris Bonts
Show Notes
In this episode, I interview DR. Chris Bonts from Harvest Bible Chapel in Jupiter, FL.
Chris speaks about his transition from the SBC to Harvest Bible Chapel.
Information on Church planting with Harvest
The first Christian book Chris ever read: Power in the Pulpit
How far in advance do you plan? One year preaching schedule – plans out 35 Sundays
The difference between James McDonald and John McArthur – Implication and Application – one says that you preach with implication and allow the Spirit to bring about application.
Uses Bible Works software
Mentioned – Boku Notebooks
Goodreader app
Chris reads one chapter a week from a preaching book.
Book: Made to stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die
Tweetal Statements – the most important one is the big idea for the sermon – Repeats the big idea at least 5 times in the sermon
When the law opens up a wound, you must show how the Gospel heals those wounds.
“Preaching is truth through personality.” – Philip Brooks
DR. Bont’s Advice:
Young preachers, don’t take hurts into the pulpit. Don’t use the pulpit as a billy-club.
Get into the text early in the week. 20 hours. If you wait to late, you may be ambushed by a busy week
