Preaching Christ At Christmas
November 9, 2009The incarnation is a wonderful theme to preach on. But preaching multiple Christmas sermons each year on a limited number of passages, can be a challenge: especially if you’ve been doing it for 20 years!
If you are based in Scotland, you might be interested to go along to a workshop Peter Grainger is running on the 28th of November in Edinburgh: “Preaching Christ at Christmas.” Peter will be sharing some thoughts on how to approach your Christmas preaching with freshness. If you’re interested, contact Peter directly for more details: pjgrainger@keme.co.uk.
Hopefully, for those of us further afield, Peter will be able to produce some of the material in a form that can be disseminated.

Just got given the “Christmassy” bit of Malachi to work on… um…
I had to chuckle when I saw your note about “doing it for 20 years.” I’ve been doing it for nearly 40 years and often re-work older sermons for Advent and Christmas. But, to stay fresh, I try to work up a new series every three or four years.
Found this on the Resurgence blog today. Useful?
