Preaching as an Act of Love
Preaching is seen as an act of love towards God and the congregation, faithfully communicating God's word. It is not about imposing one's will, but rather a humble service that brings out the relevance of the passage for the listeners. Preachers aim to show the connection between biblical truth and the experiences and needs of the people they serve. They strive to bring clarity, encouragement, and truth, pointing out flaws in thinking or unbelief in a loving manner. Preaching is not just about giving information, but about caring for the listeners and helping them understand and apply God's word to their lives.
