What if we preached to both Christians and non-Christians from the same sermon in our church services? How would we do this? In this talk, we are invited to consider an approach to preaching that bridges four common divides in evangelical sermons. We are encouraged to speak to both believers and nonbelievers by applying Christ-centered hermeneutics, apologetics and various forms of contextualization in our sermons. This is a talk for anyone passionate about preaching the Bible to non-Christians in their culture while also equipping and edifying Christians in Europe today.
