Second Ever Sermon

Kingdom ComeIn case you’re wondering, I’m not going to post every sermon I do on my blog. What’s the point huh? This is not a platform to elevate what I do. Rather I want to use this opportunity to get feedback - pro and con - on what I shared on Sunday.

I am new to this art - and I do mean that with all my heart - preaching is a form of art. It’s a tough gig and unless you’ve done it yourself, you have no idea how intense it is to prepare, organise and deliver a sermon.

While studying, you get bombarded by vast amounts of views and ways of tackling a text. You see things from a million perspectives and your mind explodes with all the thinking it takes to connect the dots. Then to organise this into a single channel of thought and to communicate it clearly and in a way which engages your audience, is a challenge.

So this is my second attempt at it. We are in a series called Kingdom Come - which is an expository on the Sermon On The Mount. My text was Mat 5:27-30 and it had to do with the topic of adultery. I’d love for you to listen to it and give me honest feedback - good or bad.

The slides to the message are here and below is the audio and video links used in the presentation.

My First Ever Sermon

MicrophoneSunday 27th January was a pretty awesome day for me. I preached my first ever sermon!

During the month of January, my Pastor invited 4 different people to share from the pulpit a message they believed would help build up our church. I was the last to preach and shared a sermon based on John 3:16 - possibly the most well known verse in the Bible.

Being my first ever sermon and trying to convey the topic of faith in the Gospel was a very challenging task for me. And I want to post it on my blog as a lasting reminder for me.

I welcome your feedback, your advice, your criticism, your anything really. I want to learn the art of delivering a sermon as I’ve been asked to do more in the future and so I’m asking you guys for advice. So go nuts and tell me what you think. Slides can be found here. And below is the video I made to share at the end
