As preachers of the Bible, we must never forget that the Bible is our final authority for all matters of faith and practice. We are not to preach our opinions or the opinions of others, echo the flawed teaching of other men, or allow our church traditions to assume a place more important than the Bible. To understand this better, we need to examine the doctrine of Sola Scriptura. Sola Scriptura teaches that the Bible is the only authority we have. The Bible rules our preaching, living, and every aspect of the church. I discuss the doctrine of Sola Scriptura in this episode. Let me know what you think. Support the Show.

In this episode, I give a simple introduction to Bible study—Bible study pared down to its most simple terms. Perhaps you have advanced far beyond this most straightforward method. That is good, but plenty of people are still learning how to study their Bibles. Even if you are an advanced Bible student, listen to the episode and share this method with those getting started. May God bless your studies for his glory. Support the Show. Subscribe to this podcast. Leave us a review. Point your friends to this podcast. Contact me at: alancarr@gmail.com.

In this episode, we will discuss Some Tips for Effective Preaching. We all want our preaching to be better, and it can be. If we put in the effort God will bless our preaching for his glory. I will deal with the points listed below. I pray this episode will be a help to you in your preaching ministry. Study the Word Memorize scripture * God’s Word will not return to Him void (Isaiah 55:10-11). * The Word is sharper than any two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12). * God watches over and hastens His Word to perform it (Jeremiah 1:12). * He honors His Word above His name (Psalm 138:2). * God’s Word is sent out through us to bring healing and deliverance into the lives of His people (Psalms 107:20). * God anoints His Word and through it breaks every yoke of bondage (Isaiah 10:27 ). * God promises the Holy Spirit will “bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever He has said unto us” (John 14:26). We must, however, put in the time and effort to know what God’s Word says. Depend upon the Lord Have an experience with the cross Have a sound support system Use your voice well Be informative Preach sound doctrine Reading Exhortation Get to the point If God has called you to preach the Word of God, don’t quit!

What is the most important tool the preacher has? What will give him more power with people, a more significant listenership, greater respect and standing among the congregation, shelter him when the enemies of truth attack him and help him maintain all the relationships in his life with grace? What is the preacher’s secret weapon? Does such a weapon even exist? If it does, it must be hard to find or more expensive than most preachers can afford. What if I told you that the preacher’s secret is free and available to every preacher, regardless of who he is, what kind of personality he has, where he ministers, how he preachers, his level of education, his ability to craft powerful sermons or anything else you can name. What if I told you your secret weapon is something you already have? What if I told you that you have more of this one thing than you have of anything? Indeed, you are fabulously wealthy with this secret weapon. All you have to do is learn to use it. All you have to do is let it out, and no matter how much of the secret weapon you use, you will never have any less of it. Do you want to know what this secret weapon is?

Does the Old Testament still matter in our modern culture? Of course, it does! In this episode, I discuss three reasons why the Old Testament still matters in modern preaching. We will deal with the following reasons: 1. The Old Testament is the foundation for the work of Jesus. 2. Believers find their true identity in the Old Testament. 3. The Old Testament teaches believers how to live to the glory of God. If you are convinced, like I am, that the Old Testament still matters, listen to this episode and let me know what you think. You should also listen if you believe the Old Testament can be jettisoned. Who knows? You might change your mind. Support the Show. Subscribe to this podcast. Leave us a review.

You would think Jesus would be the center of everything we say and do. You might think every sermon has Jesus as its primary focus. But is this accurate? Are our sermons all about Jesus, or are they about all sorts of other things? The truth is, we miss Jesus far more often than we want to admit. Let’s talk about it. In this episode, we will discuss where we often miss Jesus in the text and how we can avoid this. Support the Show. Subscribe to this podcast. Leave us a review. Point your friends to this podcast.

Compassion is a rare trait in our society. Many people struggle to find support during difficult times in their lives. Unfortunately, even churches often lack genuine compassion. Those who have been hurt and broken by life come to church seeking relief and guidance from God's Word, hoping to find comfort. Instead, they are often met with judgment, condemnation, and harsh criticism. This is not what they need, and it only makes things worse. In this episode, we discuss how to cultivate compassion. We must listen, pray, and preach with a compassionate heart so that we may provide the support and healing that people need. Let me know what you think. Thanks for listening. Support the Show.

1. Discouragement is part of ministry Facing discouragement is normal in all ministries. Something is off if someone in ministry claims to be on a perpetual high. If you are feeling discouraged, you are not alone. 2 . Remember How God has worked in your life He saved you, called you, gifted you, prepared you, shaped you, and used you. Recollect those times when God’s work through you has been clear and evident. 3. Identify the actual standard for your ministry It is so easy to start feeling pressured by standards that God is not holding you up against. God is not expecting you to be someone else. He wants you to be you. Empowered, growing, improving, but still you. 4. Who should you please? You cannot keep everyone happy all the time. You may preach with great sensitivity and still step on some toes. 5. Pray, prepare and preach What do we discover if we take stock of your lifetime of sermons and add them to mine and a few others? We discover that the chances of this Sunday’s message being the catalyst for a spiritual revolution are meager. Support the Show. Subscribe to this podcast. Leave us a review.

In this episode, we sit down once again with Pastor Jessae Carr. Jesse is the Pastor of Sharon Heights Baptist Church in Brookside, AL. Jesse is my son, and in exchange for his Christmas meal, he has consented to sit down for a couple of interviews. The first will air this week, and the second installment will air next week. Jesse has a lot of insight and experience in pastoral ministry. I believe our time together will be a blessing to you and will be helpful in your ministry for the Lord. Let me know what you think.
