COLLOQUIUM ON PREACHING

In response to Bishop Brown’s challenge to the Sixth Episcopal District to “BE BOLD”, the North Columbus-LaGrange District is hosting a “Colloquium on Preaching”.

As stated in Bishop Brown’s foreword to the Strategic Plan, “the local church requires inspired and equipped leadership that is intentionally committed to an ongoing spirit of revival and renewal.”

The prayer, during this five-week session, is that the fire of a preacher’s callings be reignited and the tools in their toolboxes are sharpened. #RevivalAndRenewal

Rev. Dr. Curtis L. West, Jr.,
North Columbus-LaGrange District,

Host Presiding Elder

“So, you want to be a preacher, huh”?

Hearing, answering, and heeding the call of God — AND the church — to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ

“Where in the world do sermons come from?”

Looking, listening (and even reading) for something to preach

“Unless the Lord builds . . . “ Yeah, but it said nothing about sermons!”

Hopeful hints on how to develop inspirational thoughts and disparate ideas into a coherent message from God

“I ‘magin in my mind”

The importance (and art) of sermonic illustrations

"Hep’ me as I close”

Moving from conclusion to climax

We are elated to be able to offer this colloquium

to anyone who wishes to attend at no charge. 

If you would like to join us as we express our love

for Bishop Lakey, you may do so
