Topics for 2024-2025.

We have a raft of topics as possibilities for conversation among our preaching fellows for the project year:

​

  • Who has ears to hear? What's the world like that this Word enters into?

  • The bound will as the ground for planting the Word

  • Preaching as first-order discourse

  • Bridging the chasm between the church and the world

  • Preaching the law doesn't do what you think it does, but the law will also make your task easier

  • Preaching the Old Testament is easy because Christ is right there

  • Your best source of sermon illustrations (aka the Bible interprets itself)

  • Reading between the lines for law and gospel

  • The care and feeding of the preacher

  • Death and resurrection

  • Every encounter is a preaching opportunity (aka how to manage always being on)

  • God's Word does not return empty

  • I thank God every time I think of you

The Iowa Preachers Project at Grand View University gratefully partners with Mockingbird and with generous funding from the Compelling Preaching Initiative of Lilly Endowment, Inc.
