- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Shaddix begins with asking the congregation to turn to Acts 6, focusing on ministry (0:00-6:22). The passage’s theme is church growth, but Shaddix delves deeper and discusses how the New Testament church overcame challenges to growth (6:23-11:36). The New Testament church leaders embraced their roles as stewards of God’s Word (11:37-12:31). Shaddix presents three answers to overcoming challenges of church growth (12:32-13:17). First, as a living organism, the church must grow by the Gospel; the church must be rooted by the Gospel (13:18-19:29). Second, as faithful stewards, we must protect the witness of the Gospel (19:30-23:52). Shaddix reveals that the New Testament church leaders protected two primary agents for Gospel advancing: prayer and preaching (23:53-24:19). Just as the New Testament leaders, we need to understand that prayer is how we unleash the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives (24:20-29:22). Regarding preaching, the New Testament church leaders referred to it as “distributing” the Gospel as they physically went out into secular places and spoke the Word (29:23-35:05). They grounded themselves by prayer while they distributed the Gospel to others (35:06-36:09). Third, we must share the work of the Gospel (36:10-39:07). Shaddix speaks about why the New Testament church leaders shared the Gospel: to minister to not just the poor, but also to all people so that they can spread the Word (39:08-46:00). Everyone who are saved are called to share the Gospel (46:01-46:22). Shaddix closes with three challenges for the congregation: 1) make time for prayer, 2) assign tasks for people in your church, and 3) lead your church to care for the disenfranchised (46:23-49:01). He gives a word of prayer (49:02-49:53).

- Description:
- John Warwick Montgomery was a lawyer, Lutheran theologian, professor, and writer. Montgomery asks the congregation to write down two website addresses (0:00-2:19). He then begins his sermon by reading from Acts 26 (2:20-7:05). Using Paul’s defense against King Agrippa and Governor Festus as a guide, he focuses on how to preach the Word to a secular world (7:06-10:41). First, we must preach the Gospel for ourselves; the Gospel must be presented personally (10:42-12:28). Second, we must preach to all—the “small and the great” (12:29-14:58). Third, we must create common ground between us and non-believers (14:59-17:27). Montgomery speaks that we should begin with our testimonies, just as Paul did (17:28-21:37). However, the danger of testimonies is that non-believers have the tendency to focus on what the speaker experienced rather than connecting the experience to Jesus and His salvation (21:38-22:07). Testimonies should always lead someone from the subjective speaker to the objective Christ: this does not typically happen (22:08-22:57). A testimony is an overall good place to start when spreading the Gospel, but the message should be restricted to Scripture (22:58-24:42). The Gospel is the center of the message that liberals do not take seriously and that conservatives do not realize leads people to salvation (24:43-25:52). Jesus is the cornerstone that one must fall on to be saved, and the events in the Gospel occurred publicly for all (25:53-30:09). How the Gospel will be received is not certain, but we must remain faithful and always restrict the message to Scripture alone (30:10-31:02). A word of prayer concludes the sermon (31:03-31:33).
