Weekly Web Watch :1st November

Thursday is the day I don’t have any teaching responsibilities at College so I work from home and it seems like a good day to resume my Weekly Web Watch - a round-up of preaching related features I have come across on the web.

Just this morning I have come across the recordings from the Expositors Conference with Steven Lawson and John MacArthur. I’ll be burning these on to CDs today and listening to them over the next few days on my travels to and from Edinburgh .

Robert Stone has some good material on ‘Introduction to Expository Preaching’.

The Preaching Today blog has a stimulating piece on ‘the challenge of application’

Having recently taught a series on ‘How the Bible came to us‘, I was interested in this piece by Brian Lowery and being in the process of shfting from NIV to ESV in my teaching and preaching, as well as in the light of my recent studies in the origins of Scripture, I am intrigued by and must look into the ESV Literary Bible

Can I also direct you to the materials from the recent, second, Preach the Word seminars I am involved in?

Each week, I also want to commend a faithful ’steward of the secret things’ whose preaching has blessed and inspired me. I am currently reading, ‘My heart for thy cause’, Brian Borgman’s book on the theology of Al Martin’s preaching. That seems a good enough reason to draw your attention to Al Martin’s church and ministry library
