Improve your sermons

sermons No Comments »

One of the best (and perhaps most humbling!) of ways to improve your sermons is to get someone who you respect to give you feedback.

If you want really good feebback it is ggod to have a selection of preset questions they rate you on to highlight any areas you may need to work on.

Here is the form that Mars Hill use to evaluate their sermons, as posted by Scott Thomas.

What do you think of the areas covered? Would you add anything, or do you have your own lists that you use?

Free sign language sermons

sermons 1 Comment »

There is a glut of free sermons online, which is awesome, but Faith Promise Church are now providing video sermons with American sign language. This is a really exciting offering, and one which hopefully more larger churches will embrace (providing video sermons isn’t easy or cheap!). Apparently there are 2m Deaf people in the US, of which 93% are unchurched.

Here is the little teaser/trailer of the new ASL interpretation:

Newfrontiers Together on a Mission Audio available!

sermons 2 Comments »

Last week my family was fortunate enough to attend the Newfrontiers Together on a Mission Conference. We had an awesome time and not just because my mother in law kept us all well fed! The conference is focused to those in any form of leadership (or serving) in church whether that be a small group leader, a pastor, or any other area you care to come up with.

One talk I think every Christian would benefit from listening to is Joel Virgo’s talk on the Armor Bearer (Main Session 7). It was an inspiring message on covering the back of your church leader/pastor, and what can be achieved by working together for Jesus. It is one of those messages I think I’ll need to listen to every year!

Pretty much all of the audio is now uploaded, with video downloads coming soon too.
