Cutting It Straight: The Key to Dynamic Expository Preaching and Powerful Biblical Presentations - Paperback

by James A. Byrd (Author)

If three points and a poem no longer keeps listeners from snoozing during your preaching, teaching, or Biblical presentations, Cutting It Straight will help you fine-tune your lessons. Evangelist Dr. James A. Byrd explores how to develop dynamic expository sermons or powerful Biblical presentations that will be remembered by those who hear you in this resource guide for preachers, Bible teachers, church leaders, and Bible presenters. He explains that "cutting it straight" means rightly dividing the word of truth by preaching the "whole counsel of God" (Acts 20:27 NKJV) that requires expository preaching from the Old Testament canon that is uniquely Christian. If preachers desire to accomplish that which God proposes, they must perform expository preaching from the Old Testament as well as the New Testament. They must "rightly [divide] the word of truth." They must perform their duties while cutting it straight. Find God's divine solution to the human problem in Scripture and preach, teach, or present it in a powerful, relevant way by applying the lessons in this guide.
