Introduction The ins and outs of being a student preacher can be very nerve-wracking because of the responsibility of completing every dotted “I” and crossed “T”. When writing, preaching, and teaching the Word of God, it can become very intimidating for anyone who wishes to follow a league of skilled preachers, pastors, and teachers. How can you be original when it seems like all apparent techniques have been discovered? Speaking of technique, how should a student preacher apply everything he or she has learned from a Bible seminar? These are questions for many Bible students. How can I represent God and at the same time reach the lost souls of our generation and at the same time feed believers of Christ so that they do not starve? Regardless, we must have faith in what we have learned and it will impact all those God has given us to reach. Students of the Word must believe that God has given them a sermon to impact the lives of many. The main factor is that we must learn to understand the basic principles of expository, topical, and textual preaching. It will serve as a safety net for any student preacher to follow. This safety net will help them become fishers of men to reach their congregation, the lost, and the world, as well as become builders of the Kingdom of God. The Difference Between Expository, Topical, and Textual PreachingThe difference between expository, topical, and textual preaching is very easy to understand once you see the difference of each method. Each method will allow you to deliver a sermon based on the needs and understanding of your audience. Furthermore, each method can bring the glory of God to the people who listen to you and learn from you. Expository preaching is the method of using a short passage and building... middle of paper... the eternity of God. Every preacher and teacher has the responsibility to deliver a sermon that aligns with the Holy Bible. In our hermeneutics course textbook “Christ-Centered Preaching, the Redemption of Expository Preaching” by Byran Chapell; states that the key element of a sermon is “Unity”. Hopefully the sermon communicates God's truths and not just thoughts that would disconnect the audience. Furthermore, it is stated that when a sermon has unity, a preacher has the ability to focus on the depth of the topic. This is profound because no matter how you structure a sermon, it must bring home the heart of God. The one passage that reveals what expository preaching can do is John 1:1-4. «The beginning was the Word... He is God... Through Him all things are made... In Him is life! This is what preachers and teachers do, every time they give a sermon they demonstrate who God is to humanity.
