The BEST Way to Build Tension (In your sermon)

[@brandonhurst5991]

Great insights Lane! “Open a loop that only your sermon can close.”

LANE! Thank you so much, bro. Preparing for my 4th sermon that's coming up in just over a week...was searching for resources for sermon prep and just remembered you offer help with this too!!! God bless you and thank you!

[@katienka7041]

Yes examples will be so helpful. Thanks for your time helping us to be the best instruments in God's hands

[@genesis3lasertag]

Can you give some examples from some of your sermons?

[@blakewetsel8146]

Yes! Do an episode on mini loops! Appreciate the videos and books!

Great suggestion. My husband does a great job with this. He also does something similar where he opens his sermon with a story that he leaves unresolved, and he gives you the conclusion at the end of his sermon. I do this in my messages at women's conferences as well, and it's a strong way to tie things together. You leave your hearers suspended, wondering what's going to happen.

That's a great idea!

Great episode!

[@PreachingDonkey]

THanks so much!

[@rogerwelty6255]

You doing alright, brother?

Thank you, Lane, for your insightful talk. What you point out is essentially a big reason why inductive preaching is so effective. Haddon Robinson and Donald Sunukjian have done a good job of addressing this very issue in their books, Invitation to Biblical Preaching and Biblical Preaching. Keep up the great job that you're doing, Lane!

Thank you!

The sermon as the Sunday morning staple is unbiblical. The early church met as a family and engaged in mutual ministry. The Reformers didn't trust the people so they made the pastor the "mouthpiece of God." But God doesn't speak through the pastor. If he did, we wouldn't have a single denomintion. Everyone would believe the same things.
