For local churches to flourish, their pastors must preach and shepherd with the shepherd’s staff — the Word of God alone. 

We’ve always been strong advocates of expository preaching. However, preaching that fills the head with doctrine, yet avoids applying biblical texts, falls short of helping God’s people move from one position to another (as Lloyd-Jones says). 
This preaching conference will make it clear that preaching that does not compel the heart to be moved by God’s glory to apply it — and to humbly spring into action to do His will — falls short of true biblical preaching.
That’s why experiential preaching is so important. It is exposition and application, but it is more. 

Experiential preaching stresses the need to know by experience the great truths of the Word of God. It brings truth to the heart to illuminate who we are, where we stand with God, how we need to be healed, and where we need to be headed. 

Experiential preaching addresses the entire range of Christian living. With the Spirit's blessing, its mission is to transform the believer in all that he is and does so that he becomes more and more like the Savior.  

Experiential preaching breaks us and remakes us. It is both exhilarating and humbling. It prompts a love for God and His glory, as well as a burning passion to declare and display that love to others around him. 

Join Joel Beeke and Brian Borgman on April 23-24 for Experiential Preaching: A Heart Compelled by God.
