Preaching, Teaching, Conferences & Workshops
I love the camaraderie, the laughing, the fellowship of others who know the unique demands and privileges we shepherds share. I’ve spoken to lots of different groups but I connect best with pastors and ministry students. They’re my kind of people.
I speak on a lot of different pastoral topics—like the care of souls, the church as home, the pastoral long haul, and preaching with imagination. I also enjoy new assignments. Seminars and workshops are one thing and preaching is another. I welcome the opportunity to preach to ministry colleagues from Scripture. Some texts I have used are:
- Acts 18:1-17 – A Rough Business
- Luke 10:38-42 – When Not to Serve Jesus
- 1 Peter 5:1-4 – Good Shepherds
- Psalm 16 – Medicine for the Pastoral Shakes
- Genesis 32:22-32 – The Uneasy Blessing of the God Who Won’t Let Go
- 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 – The Trumpet Call of God
Many of my sermons are available to subscribers of PreachingToday.com
