Divisions (run-on sentence OK, direct verbiage from Scripture/Principles are Aims for each Division – a truth about God, a truth about man, a truth about God’s relationship to man):

1.Dinah is defiled and Simeon and Levi kill and plunder Shechem (Genesis 34:1-31)

Principle:  Multiple wrongs don’t make a right.

2.Jacob came home, Isaac died and Esau and Jacob buried him (Genesis 35:1-29)

Principle:  God calls everyone home to Himself.

3.The Family Line of Esau (Genesis 36:1-43)

Principle:  God builds all families – physical and spiritual.

 

Subject Sentence (10-word sentence with proper structure showing exactly where you are in Scripture):

Shechem defiles Dinah, Jacob returns home, Esau’s line is defined.

 

Aim (“To Cause My Audience To…” Know, See, Learn, Understand, etc.):

TCMATK God uses every part of every life to bring His plan to fruition.

 

Application (not yes or no question.  Meant to bring about heart change):

1.How does knowing that vengeance belongs to the Lord help you extend grace and mercy to those who have hurt you?

2.How are your day-to-day steps leading you home to God?

3.How are your physical and spiritual families pointing you to God and His plan for your life?

 

The Big Idea (author’s main purpose in writing; the one thing all the other things in the passage is about; if you couldn’t talk about it, you would still understand the passage is trying to convey this):

Homiletics Training: Content

Homiletics .   By definition, “homiletic” is the art of preaching or writing sermons.   I think we would all agree that our pastors study the Bible thoroughly to deliver sermons every Sunday to their congregations.   The beautiful news is that every child of God can use this discipline to study the Bible for themselves. As a member of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Leadership, part of my required preparation each week is to prepare homiletics for the passage we are studying.   BSF offers an engaging seminar on how to use this method to study the Scriptures.   I’ve taken the seminar several times under two different leaders and I’ve learned something new every time I’ve attended.   I’ve also been doing the process of homiletics for over ten years and I can say that there is no better teacher than the Holy Spirit in this process!   So keep practicing.   Keep sharing and discussing.   I’ve been posting my homiletics on this blog for quite a...
