Healthy Church: Expositional Preaching

In this episode of Salty Believer Unscripted, Bryan Catherman and Josiah Walker continue their Healthy Church series with a discussion about expositional preaching. Using the first of Mark Dever’s Nine Marks of a Healthy Church as a starting point, they discuss what expositional preaching is, why it matters, and how faithful preaching shapes the health of the local church. They also discuss the difference between expositional and verse-by-verse preaching, the dangers of preaching our favorite topics while neglecting the whole counsel of God, and why preaching should submit to the shape and emphasis of the biblical text.
