Preaching - Is That Really What You're Doing?

4min

In this engaging and thought-provoking conversation Nick Cady and Mike Neglia speak with Robert Fergusson about the value of storytelling in preaching. Our postmodern world cherishes stories of individuals yet is skeptical of an overarching metanarrative - Robert helps us to use the former to communicate the latter.

They also speak about what it means to follow the example of Paul in 2 Corinthians 4:5 “For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.”

This was recorded in December 2020 and originally broadcast in February of 2021
