Here is the entire PDF packet of notes that the men received.
Here is some of the info:
PURPOSE:
This is to help you understand what is involved in preaching, how to prepare a sermon, and how to improve at the preaching of God's Word so that we can grow in our ability to teach & preach God's truth to God's people (2 Tim 4:2 - "preach ... be ready in season & out of season"). America & the Church needs more POWERFUL, FIERY, URGENT, BIBLICAL, and ENGAGING preachers!
TYPICAL FORMAT:
8:00-8:30am TEACHING on sermon prep, delivery, construction, etc.
8:30-9:00am SERMON
9:00-9:30am CRITIQUE & FEEDBACK on the sermon that was preached.
WHAT IS REQUIRED:
You would have the opportunity to prepare & preach a 20 minute sermon before the men (depending on how many men commit to this, you'd probably preach once a month). The benefits: you would be IN God's Word during the week, studying a given text, working through an outline, the intro, the conclusion, application, illustrations, etc. Then you would deliver it & we as your brothers would encourage you in what you did well & provide constructive criticism of the sermon as well.
May God continue to raise up a band of men who will faithfully, boldly, unashamedly, fearlessly, urgently, and passionately declare the glories of Christ's substitutionary atonement on behalf of sinners!
