SMBC Preaching Conference - good stuff

I've been on the SMBC preaching conference for the last couple of days and we had a great talk from Bryan Chapell on Biblical Theology (Graham Goldsworthy style). He spoke about all Scripture having a FCF, that is a Fallen Condition Focus. It was a great reminder to see all of Scripture ultimately about dealing with our problem of sin in Christ Jesus.

Some of the best preaching training I have recieved has been from our Archbishop in throw away lines. One of them is something similar to Bryan's point. Peter has said to me: 'put people in the place the word of God puts them in and then let the word of God get them out of it.' It's been good stuff and I'm looking forward to tomorrow despite being pretty tired.
