Hopefully, this will be part one of a new series examining the Marks of a True Church. For this episode, we dive into what is the pure preaching of the Gospel. To help us with this we brought on Dr. Van Dam, emeritus professor of Canadian Reformed Seminary.
We discuss what is preaching, how it differs from lectures and speeches, who can preach, and who is preaching for. We also hone in on what about preaching in a missional context - is the preaching for the lost or the found??
Be sure to let us know your thoughts on this episode!
