How to Preach WITHOUT Notes (Part 1 of 2)

[@palesakemphoentle9240]

I came across this teaching while searching on how to prepare your first sermon and I must say this has helped me so much. Thank you for sharing you've opened my eyes to the truth of bringing God's message to his people. I'll be sharing my first sermon soon as a first-time preacher and I'm trusting God. This is sent from South Africa with great appreciation. God bless you.

Good evening my fellow preaching Brother. as always excellent concept on using little to no notes. I have been wrestling with this approach for a few months and what you presented is essential and very practical. If possible could you so kindly post the two steps verbiage that you discussed or will you make them available in the final session? Blessing

The easiest way to teach or preach without notes is to select a topic that you have extensive experience or education in. For example, if you teach on a topic that you use to witness, you will have practice and passion. I can speak for hours on getting good grades (John 14:26, Psalms 119:99-100, I John 2:27, James 1:5, Daniel 1:17-20), evangelism technique, overcoming temptation, how to intercede for others, because these are topics that I have extensive practice in. If I select some topic that is new, it might be flat. I avoid flat sermons, so 99% of the time, I teach a sermon that I taught before. Also If I preach, I teach 3 topics about 10 minutes each with a fiery ending. You need a fiery ending if you are going to do an alter call. I do not prepare too much the first topic or introduction, but rather warm up my voice the first 10 minutes teaching. People remember how you finish, not how you start. I know that this is contrary to what is taught, but you cannot preach 20 minutes, blow out your voice and finish weak, they will never invite you back. And I hear people say about these beginners, "He doesn't know how to preach!"

Brother... Maybe you should do the same with your podcasts :P (BTW, I much appreciate your teachings -- you're one of my favorites :) Keep going! :)

Billy Graham glanced his notes often to follow format.

Thank you!

It’s ironic that a presentation about not relying on notes, is being presented by reading notes. I’m I missing something ?

[@PreachingDonkey]

🤣🤣

[@Youdidnthearme]

Preaching without notes is easy I do it all the time especially when the holy ghost shows up , protocol is out of the window

"How to preach without notes." Proceeds to read me from an article. You can't make this stuff up. 🤦‍♂️

[@AC-du1eb]

Bro you are talking while reading from an article.

[@PreachingDonkey]

You’re right. Don’t watch. 🤙

[@karenham-ying3316]

But you say :without notes! Yet you use notes.

[@jonathanhalk6732]

It’s not a contest, in most cases it’s incredibly irresponsible, and dangerous.
