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; a sin to avoid, promise to trust, example to follow, command to obey, truth to believe):

1.The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah in the reign of Josiah, Jehoiakim and Zedekiah (Jer 1:1-10)

Principle:  God appoints people to build His kingdom.

2.The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah to proclaim disaster for the people and protection for his prophet (Jer 1:11-19)

Principle:  God gives words to those He calls to speak for Him.

 

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

Word of the Lord to Jeremiah: from north disaster poured.

 

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

TCMATK God has a plan and purpose for every life.

 

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

1.Where are you being called by God to build His kingdom, and how are you responding to that call?

2.How are you spreading the message God has given you to share with others?

 

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):

Calling

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...
