CMIN 276: pREACHING AND TEACHING FOR DISCIPLESHIP

Class Instructor: Luke Erickson, Executive Pastor

God’s story transcends time. From beginning to end and all through the messy middle, God is creating and re-creating, leading and disciplining, rescuing and rehabilitating until the incredible climax when God’s people are redeemed, Jesus is victorious, and God is all in all! This unparalleled story begs to be told and retold. More than that, it is to be lived and experienced by each one of us. God has long been on the pursuit: who will tell my story? Who will preach my message of truth and grace? Who will teach my people my ways and help them find life in my name? This course is for anyone wanting to answer that question: “I will.”

The course will explore the content, context, and consequences of preaching and teaching in the life of the church. Considerable attention will be given to the techniques of oral delivery and the process of moving from the biblical text to the preaching/teaching event. This course is for anyone wanting to grow in their ability to teach God's Word in a way that advances our mission to make disciples.
Course begins Sunday, August 23.
Class meets Sundays 6 - 9 PM from August 23 - December 6 (class will NOT meet on 9/6, 10,11 and 11/29)
