In this episode, I just sat in the chair, pulled a book on preaching off my shelf and decided to speak off the cuff about preaching. Abraham Kuruvilla's definition of preaching: Biblical preaching, by a leader of the church, in a gathering of Christians for worship, is the communication of the thrust of a pericope of Scripture discerned by theological exegesis, and of its application to that specific body of believers, that they may be conformed to the image of Christ, for the glory of God—all in the power of the Holy Spirit.
