The document provides guidance for preaching the word of God based on 2 Timothy 4:1-5. It emphasizes preaching from the Bible rather than opinions, criticisms, or current events. It also stresses encouraging one's congregation with good teaching that is relevant, understandable, and prepared. The document encourages emulating Jesus' teaching style of using illustrations and involving the five senses, and stresses taking time to carefully read, research, write, review and deliver one's sermons.

2 Timothy 4:1-5 4 I solemnly urge you in the presence of God and Christ Jesus, who will someday judge the living and the dead when he appears to set up his Kingdom: 2 Preach the word of God. Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. Patiently correct, rebuke, and encourage your people with good teaching. 3 For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will reject the truth and chase after myths. 5 But you should keep a clear mind in every situation. Dont be afraid of suffering for the Lord. Work at telling others the Good News, and fully carry out the
Preach the Word of God Dont preach Opinions (The only opinion that matters when you preach is Gods.) Criticisms (Let the people know what you are for and not just what you are against.) A topic (Unless that topic is specifically in your text leave it alone) A current event (Unless the text directly points to the event leave it alone.) A commentary (Commentary during sermon prep Bible during the sermon) Quotes (Quotes are GREAT as a snack, but not as the meal) Data (Data can only be used when strengthening a Biblical argument)
Encourage your people with good teaching Good teaching isnt: Boring (Passion and a burden kill boredom) Irrelevant (If your sermon isnt relevant than probably arent preaching the word) Heretical (Against clear Biblical teaching) Long-winded (The sermon on the mount can be read in under 15 minutes) Always angry (The Bible should be used for correction not as a weapon) Always nice (Understand that Gods wrath is taught along with Gods love) Unprepared (Care enough about others to not waste their time) Crowded (Preach a text, maybe two dont overload)
Work at telling others the Good News Work means: It doesnt come easily You must be willing to face the challenges ahead You must understand that the GOOD NEWS should be delivered in a way that doesnt jeopardize its GOODNESS to the listener, and this takes WORK!
Jesus Teaching Style: Use illustrations Illustrations make the Biblical teaching come alive Jesus knew this and used them all the time! Teach in view of the 5 senses See (The dove descending during baptism) Taste (Water to wine) Touch (Washing the disciples feet) Feel (Mud on the eyes) Listen (He spoke and he allowed others to speak) Dont be distracted Stay on point Dont get distracted by the mob.
The text picks you you dont pick the text. read, pray, listen, read, repeat
