Only He knows what He wants to say!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lnj Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I find a sermon with too many jokes thrown in very disrupting and loses the seriousness of the Word.(a few jokes ok, too many - not ok)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to church expecting something new from the Holy Spirit during worship and he always gives more than what I was expecting. Man we have a wonderful God.

Guest Beak Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 [size=6 ] [When the person giving the sermon wanders all over the place and you lose the impact of the message or text he was speaking on. Stick to the main theme!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Biblicist Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I've posted 10 things that make a sermon boing on my blog this morning. I'm curious to know what you thing makes a sermon boring. As a preacher ... I need to know this stuff If you want, check mine out then add to it... Blessings, Trey http://rediscovering-church.blogspot.com/2...eep-during.html My SIN. . . That's what makes me bored with hearing the Word of God preached. Satan sits on my shoulder and tells me, "You've heard all this before." "You've been saved for 30 years, what else could this guy teach you?" When I start to listen to him that is when I start getting bored, it has nothing to do with what the Pastor is doing, or saying, it's ME! It is the Pastor's responsibility to bring God's word to me. It's MY respoinsibility to prepare my heart for what The Lord wishes me to learn from that. The responsibility is mine, all mine. He's not up there to entertain me! He does not preach from a stage, he preaches from a pulpit. I do not go to the Theater to hear The Gosple, I go to Church. My tithe is not the price of admission. The apostles didn't have anecdotes or funny stories to tell, they didn't use power point, they certainly didn't spend entire sermons trying to explain what Jeasus meant. They simply preached the Word. The Truth. This is church: Acts 2:41-47 41 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. 42 They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
