CM210 Preaching Biblical Narrative (Videos)
Overview
In this course Dr. J. Kent Edwards helps you make the stories of the Bible come alive for your congregation. Most of the Bible is comprised of narrative—of stories about God working in and through people. These stories can be confusing and can be a challenge to communicate to a congregation from the pulpit. This course begins by explaining why it’s important to preach through the biblical narratives. Dr. Edwards then provides guidance in understanding the individual stories by pointing to the big idea of the biblical story, and he walks you through the steps of crafting a narrative sermon.
