Developing A Christocentric Approach For Expository Preaching, Grace Fellowship, Anniston, Alabama

Abstract

This project works to establish a pattern of christocentric expository preaching at Grace Fellowship, Anniston, Alabama. Chapter 1 outlines the limits of the project, sets the context of Grace Fellowship, and defines christocentric expository preaching. Chapter 1 also serves as the introduction to the project as a body of work.

Chapter 2 begins with an analysis of important passages of Scripture that form the foundation of a christocentric approach to expository preaching. The chapter focuses on the preaching of the apostles as a model of preaching for pastors in our day.

Chapter 3 compares christocentric preaching to two alternate approaches of preaching. Both methods are analyzed using the preaching ministry of prominent advocates of the preaching style.

Chapter 4 gives the details of the work completed during the fifteen-week project that was conducted at Grace Fellowship. The three main elements of the project are evaluated and reported for the reader to analyze this project.

Chapter 5 is the final chapter in this ministry project. It seeks to summarize the conclusions of the project and suggests ways this project can be improved.
