We Are Vineyard Preaching In The Vineyard: Preaching The Gospel with Rich Nathan
This episode of We Are Vineyard is a continuation of our miniseries on preaching hosted by Adam Russell (Lead Pastor of Vineyard Campbellsville in KY and Director of Vineyard Worship) and Ted Kim (Lead Pastor of Evanston Vineyard in IL). Today’s guest is Rich Nathan, founding pastor of Vineyard Columbus and Director of their Pastors Residency Program. In this episode, Rich shares some of his preaching journey and some ways in which his preaching has changed over the last 45 years. Rich also talks about the role of empathetic imagination in preaching to a diverse audience, why whole-person communication is the heart of preaching, and how the Good News informs the shape of his sermons.
