…according to Steve Lawson:

A heaven-sent revival will only come when Scripture is enthroned once again in the pulpit. There must be the clarion declaration of the Bible, the kind of preaching that gives a clear explanation of a biblical text with compelling application, exhortation, and appeal.

Preacher, is this your goal when you come to sermon preparation?

Notice Lawson’s not endorsing expository lectures but expository sermons / preaching. Joining the explanation must be “compelling application, exhortation, and appeal.”

Lord, by your grace please aid and sustain us in this sober and high calling.
