Preaching, says Heath Hardesty, should do more than explain a passage of Scripture - it should take listeners on a journey that awakens thirst and points them to the living water of Christ. In this session, recorded at Valley Community Church in Pleasanton, California, Hardesty unpacks how the “arc” and the “through-line” of expository preaching bring sermons into harmony with the larger story of redemption.Drawing from John 7:37–39, he demonstrates how faithful exposition stirs a Spirit-given sense of need and satisfies the soul's ache in the gospel. The teaching weaves together theology, cultural insight, and pastoral wisdom, offering a vision of preaching that is unified, Spirit-led, and Christ-centred.About Heath HardestyHeath Hardesty serves as Lead Pastor of Valley Community Church in Pleasanton, CA, and is a founder of Inklings Coffee & Tea in the heart of downtown Pleasanton. He grew up in a blue-collar home and was a plumber's apprentice in Colorado before becoming a pastor on the edge of Silicon Valley, where he, his wife, and their four children now reside. Heath holds degrees in literature, leadership, biblical studies, and theology from the University of Colorado Boulder and Western Seminary in Portland.His forthcoming book, All Things Together: How Apprenticeship to Jesus Is the Way of Flourishing in a Fragmented World (with a foreword by Jon Tyson), will be released October 14, 2025.Pre-Order Heath's Book Here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/776336/all-things-together-by-heath-hardesty/For information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com The Expositors Collective podcast is part of the CGNMedia, Working together to proclaim the Gospel, make disciples, and plant churches.

Should our preaching be topical or Scriptural? Can you do both? Today we talk about preaching style and why it is important to go through the Bible verse by verse. 2 Peter 3:9 John 3:16
Send us a textUnderstanding the Book of ProverbsThe Book of Proverbs is one of the most treasured pieces of wisdom literature in the Bible. Known for its concise sayings and memorable instructions, Proverbs offers wisdom for daily living and emphasizes the fear of the Lord as the foundation of knowledge. Preaching through the Book of Proverbs expositionally presents many unique challenges. The book's structure, thematic and literary diversity, and focus on practical wisdom create an interesting yet complex struggle for preachers. Expositional preaching aims to faithfully convey the author's original intent in a passage while making it applicable to the congregation. This episode provides a framework for expositional preaching through the Book of Proverbs, addressing key considerations such as structure, themes, literary style, and application.1. Introduction and purpose (Proverbs 1:1-7)2. Fatherly discourses (Proverbs 1:8-9:18)3. Solomon's proverbs (Proverbs 10-22:16)4. Sayings of the wise (Proverbs 22:17-24:34)5 . Solomon's proverbs compiled by Hezekiah (Proverbs 25-29)6. Sayings of Agur (Proverbs 30)7. Sayings of Lemuel (Proverbs 31)8. The virtuous woman (Proverbs 31:10-31)Principles for Preaching Through Proverbs Expositionally1. Preach with a Literary Awareness2. Focus on Larger Sections and Themes in the First Nine Chapters3. Use Topical Exposition in the Middle Section (Proverbs 10-29)Examples of themes include:- The righteous versus the wicked- Diligence and laziness- Honesty and integrity- Wealth and poverty- Speech and its consequences- Family and parenting4. Maintain Christ-Centeredness5. Emphasize the “Fear of the Lord” as the Foundation6. Preach with a Sensitivity to ApplicatAsk Me Anything | EP. 4 "Faith + Politics"The podcast where we answer IT ALL!

Lastly, we discuss "Are You Convinced or Questioning?"—a sermon from Acts 19. These sermons are examples of how to preach expositionally in different genres of the Bible.

What does a healthy one look like? My name is Norman and my goal is to help you Run Your Race Well, not just Surviving but Thriving as a Disciple of Jesus! There are a LOT of things you could do with your life, but I don't think anything compares with following Jesus and joining Him on His mission of bringing Hope to the nations. Thanks for including me in your journey! So how do you find a good church to be part of? Not always so easy! In some parts of the world there are few choices so it means sticking with one that may be less than ideal in many cases. In other context, most anywhere in the USA for example, there are too many choices. It is hard to even visit most of them! So where do you begin? I am old fashioned so I always begin with people. Ask someone you know in the area, a fellow believer, to give you recommendations. Ask believers who may be familiar with the area or have family there to give you recommendations. At the least you can rule out some options and put an asterisk by others. I believe Baptist doctrine is intended to be an honest attempt to be Biblical doctrine so Baptist or Baptistic churches will be my first stop. With naming of churches being what it is these days that doesn't mean Baptist will be in the name! Many Baptist churches, Bible churches, Community churches, and as well as non-denominational churches have similar if not identical doctrinal statements. I would like to see a churches doctrinal statement but the difficulty comes in when you begin visiting churches to see how they live it out. Baptist doctrine does not always equal Biblical practice unfortunately. A church website can tell you who a church is, beliefs and creeds, etc. A website can show you a lot of what a church does, service times, small groups, counseling ministry, etc. A website cannot really let you get to know a church. That takes time with the church, the people who make up the local body. So what do you look for? Mark Dever wrote a book, The 9 Marks of a Healthy Church. The 9 Marks he gives are: 1. Expositional Preaching, 2. Biblical Theology, 3. The Gospel, 4. A Biblical Understanding of Conversion, 5. A Biblical Understanding of Evangelism, 6. A Biblical Understanding of Church Membership, 7. Biblical Church Discipline, 8. Concern for Discipleship and Growth, 9. Biblical Church Leadership. The IMB has an article on the 12 Characteristics of a Healthy Church. https://www.imb.org/2016/08/31/2016083112-characteristics-healthy-church/ The article actually precedes all of these with the word Biblical! I suppose it is good not to assume anything! The 12 Characteristics they list are: Evangelism, Discipleship, Membership, Leadership, Teaching and Preaching, Ordinances, Worship, Prayer, Fellowship, Accountability and Discipline, Giving, Mission All of these are good to think about but they are long lists. I want to emphasize a few specific things. Foundation of God's Word: The bible is taught and is followed. There should be a real love for God and His word. Jesus is lifted up as the standard for our behavior, attitudes and relationships. God's Word is lived out by His people. There is a commitment to do what it says. Emphasis on Active Obedience: Hand in hand with the biblical foundation in the teaching is an emphasis on living it out. Practical daily obedience and a willingness to follow Jesus are encouraged and supported. Each person is challenged to be a Berean, actively reading the bible themselves and making personal application. The goal should be for every believer to be a self-feeding Christian who is engaged with others on the mission of Jesus to bring God's message of reconciliation to the world. Training and Encouragement toward being a Disciple Maker: Following Jesus results in people pouring out their lives for others. Sacrificially giving time and resources to see the Family of God grow in maturity and faith is natural and necessary. Members are motivated, trained and released to serve the church and the community. Focus on Life and Ministry outside of the building: Church life is the life of the people, not the service times printed in the bulletin. Relationships are encouraged, living the “one another's” is practiced. Small groups are utilized to train leaders, share the gospel, build up new believers and provide ongoing accountability and encouragement for all. The command to Love one another is lived out: Forgiveness, confession, sharing testimonies of God's grace and the like are common and considered natural. Perfection is not expected, mistakes are. All kinds of people with all kinds of problems are welcomed and embraced with Grace and Love. It's all good to look for a good church to be a part of. It is a task to take seriously. Just don't look for a perfect church. It doesn't exist. Look for a church you can contribute to and help to be the church God intends it to be. Invest in the lives of others in the church. Commit to be a giver to the church. Make ti your goal to build up every member and to make Jesus the center of every relationship. The church is, and will remain, a messy group to be a part of. But God loves His bride and we should too! OUTRO Thanks for joining me today! Check out runwithhorses.net for show notes and past shows.

This is The On Preaching Podcast, the podcast dedicated to helping you preach faithfully, clearly, and better. In this episode, H.B. talks about the ministry of application. A biblical sermon should consist of explanation, illustration, and application. We are prone to skip over application, or do it wrong. It is critical that preachers take application seriously and work to do it effectively. How can I practice the ministry of application effectively? Apply the text. Pray for wisdom. Know your audience. Make pastoral applications. Ask probinh questions. Craft your application. Illustrate for application. Address different categories. Apply throughout the sermon. Trust the Holy Spirit. BOOK RECOMMENDATION: "Preaching that Changes Lives" by Mike Fabarez For HBC2 resources, visit hbcharlesjr.com

Preaching is not conversation or discussion. It's not casual talk about religious things. Preaching is heralding a message permeated by the sense of God's greatness.
