Starting a Wednesday Bible Preview!

Starting off a little sooner!

One thing that keeps happening is that, in preparing for the Sermon, there is a lot of Bible prep to begin.  What does the passage say?  What are the problems with the passage?  What other pieces are there in the passage that may be too much or too outside the mainstream of the Sermon?  What if someone wants to take a few more steps with the Scripture?

                

            So, we are going to…try something different.  On Wednesday, I am going to upload a video that focuses on the Scripture lesson for the coming Sunday.  It will be focused on the Bible, not on application or where the Sermon may end up connecting with the world around us.  I think this is important because I fear all too often, you hear the Scripture on Sunday morning, have the Sermon time to wrap your head around the wonder of God’s Holy Word, and then the pastor is asking for money.

Call this the Bible Preview ahead of the Sermon.  I do not intend to make the Sermon dependent on the Bible Preview, but there will be overlap.  The Preview is part of my own work in preparing for Sunday, for understanding the Bible passage as best as I am able.  Unlike the Sermon, a transcript will not be uploaded.  That is because this is going to be more freeform, letting the ideas flow.  I will have notes prepared, but will not feel bound to them.

Another way to look at this is to consider the Bible Nerd released.

Peace,
Pastor Peter
