The Best Way to Write a Sermon
“A sermon is not made with an eye upon the sermon, but with both eyes upon the people and all the heart upon God.” – John Owen
the best way to write a sermon is not focusing on the words on your computer screen. The best way to write a sermon is to focus on the people who will be listening to it.
You have to know your audience.
Who are they?
What are their struggles?
What are their fears?
What are their temptations?
What are their interests?
What makes them get out of bed in the morning?
Once you are focused on people, with a heart fully attuned to God, then you are ready to write a sermon that will make a difference, not just a point.
