Preaching the Word

Preaching the Word by Philip H. Curtis, Executive Director of Ministry Training Network of Southeastern New England

“Peter’s Pentecost sermon in Acts 2 had an extraordinary impact: three thousand people were added to the church in one day. How do we account for this amazing result? More importantly, what can preachers today learn from Peter’s model sermon about the preparation and delivery of their own messages? This book provides practical guidance to both lay preachers and seasoned pastors on how to preach the Word of God effectively.”

Faith and Life Studies through Ephesians – Leaders Guide by Philip H. Curtis, Executive Director of Ministry Training Network of Southeastern New England

The Lord Jesus commissioned his followers to “make disciples” of all peoples (Matthew 28:19). How is this commission to be accomplished? Certainly, there is a place for public disciple-making in both large and small group settings. Faith and Life Studies through Ephesians encourages a different model: private or personal one-to-one discipleship, using Paul’s letter to the Ephesians as the basis. Paul himself engaged in this intensive ministry of individual edification at Ephesus (Acts 20:31). This Leader’s Guide instructs the “discipler” how to use Ephesians in guiding your “disciple” or partner through the basic doctrines and practices of the Christian faith and life. Both leader and partner use the companion Study Guide as they make their way through Ephesians. May God use this tool to grow his people into the likeness of his Son.
