Preaching The Word Or Experience

Remember when I wrote a Sermon Sunday called, The Word’s Place In Our Lives?

In reading the article from Mstistry Today that I will post, I was reminded of the blog mentioned above. It is true that we cannot let our experience dictate the Word of God or cause us to just throw out the Word. However, if we just try and preach only our strengths, people may not be able to relate to us as much. My philosophy is this: As long as you are truely following the Spirit’s leading, He will lead you in the right paths. If you listen to Ron Carpenter’s preaching, you can tell that the Spirit is helping him. I’ve only listened to him twice, but both times, I felt humbled. So again: If you let the Spirit lead you, making sure you let the Word dictate your experience and what you do, people will get what they need to get out of it. These are my thoughts on the matter. Please read this prayerfully and ask the Spirit for your strategy. God bless!
