A preacher enters a conversation that has been going on between God and God’s people. You contribute to that conversation with your sermon, and then you spend the rest of the week seeing where God takes the conversation from there.

[I]f you get negative feedback, congratulations. You evidently have a very good relationship with this person. It takes a lot of courage to criticize a preacher.
We work for a living God who is constantly on the move and who is determined to win back this world.
Jesus Christ is busy speaking for himself. He is busy intruding and revealing.
