I came across a great link at a site I love, Monergism.com<\/a>, which has just about anything and everything you could ever want related to reformed theology. Turns out that Dr. Bryan Chapell has had Covenant Seminary post all of his lectures (with PDFs!) on Christ-centered preaching<\/a>. Here\u2019s the blurb on the lectures, which are free (!):<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Bryan Chapell explores the unifying principle of grace that binds all Scripture together. He outlines and demonstrates the principles and practice of sermon crafting and delivery to illuminate the message of grace in each passage, and to submit it to God\u2019s Spirit for the transformation of lives through preaching.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

It sounds like this is Covenant\u2019s preaching class; I could be wrong on this. If there\u2019s a Covenant Seminary student out there who has chanced upon this blog, please feel free to comment and let us know. Whatever the case, I think that you\u2019ll find this a manifestly helpful resource in figuring out how to preach the Bible per the conditions Christ gave in Luke 24:44-47. This is not an easy subject to figure out, and one can easily go overboard in one\u2019s typology (identifying shadow images of Christ in the people, ideas, institutions, and things of the Old Testament), and so it is great to have a gifted, godly expositor like Dr. Chapell dig deeply into this matter. I hope that these links help you to preach Christ from the Word.<\/p>\n

Also, Chappell has authored a very fine text on preaching. Click here to order Christ-Centered Preaching<\/a>. I\u2019ve worked through it and found it quite helpful on this subject. There are lots of drawbacks to the Internets, but there are also many clear strengths. Having great resources like this out there for free is most definitely one of the strengths.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
