This past month, I had the opportunity to attend the Pastor’s conference connected with our Baptist State Convention. One of the preachers was the dynamic Calvin Miller. He proclaimed (and modeled) the art of powerful Preaching/Teaching.

He gripped us from the beginning of his lesson with purposeful anecdotes that spoke to the joys and potential pitfalls that can come with preaching.

The Baptist Messenger of Oklahoma picked up on the essence of his lecture here: Calvin Miller on Preaching.

This experience reminded me yet again to get with the best in a field, listen to them, take notes, practice, and get better. I preach Wednesday night, and wow, I need to get better!

What resources have you found that have been an inspiration to you in Preaching/Teaching?
