Preaching Proverbs: What You Need to Know
The book of Proverbs has - for too long - been a book that we either skip, race through, or use inappropriately (picking verses like dandelions to suit a sermon).
Dan Phillips says, "No more."
Sure there are plenty of "wrong ways" to do it, but there are plenty of "right ways." Dan Phillips has written an excellent online intro on how to preach (and teach) the book of Proverbs FREE!
Adapted from his highly acclaimed book, Dan offers a quick guide for preachers, teachers, and Sunday School leaders that will get you excited to tackle one of the most oft neglected books.
Designed to be read in one sitting, you'll want to refer to this brief manual over and over again.
What's Covered
Proceed with Caution: 4 Things to Remember: Dan introduces principles you MUST keep in mind when teaching through Proverbs. Forget these, and you're guaranteed to lose wind half way through the first chapter. Your students depend on you knowing each of these well.
The Challenges of Teaching Proverbs: This is a challenge that's hindered pastors, teachers, and Sunday School leaders from touching the book outside of the familiar passages. But Dan demonstrates its no reason to give up hope.
Approaches to Teaching Proverbs: This is the heart of the course. Dan walks through 3 simple ways to teach through the Proverbs. While easier said than done, this section alone should be enough to get the gears turning. Prepare for a renewed excitement to crack open the book in class or at the pulpit.
How does Proverbs legitimately point to Christ? This section is gold. It reads like a "cheat sheet" demonstrating 5 appropriate ways to apply the book of Proverbs to Christ. You'll want to refer to this multiple times.
"Preaching Proverbs" is adapted from Dan Phillips' release God's Wisdom in Proverbs, Kress Biblical Resources, used by permission.
