When preaching outlines go from helpful to hazardous with Eric Attinger.

Ministry Minded

In this episode, Pastor Eric and I talk about what happens when a preacher’s sermon outline goes from helpful to hazardous. We discuss the purpose of preaching from an outline and why sermons are more like stories than they are like lectures.

Eric is on staff with me at Stonington Baptist Church in Paxinos, Pennsylvania, where he lives and serves with his wife, Jade, and their son, Rosco. You can connect with him on Facebook.
