To propel people into their destiny you must believe: 1. PREACHING IS ABOUT TRANSFORMATION, NOT INFORMATION DISSEMINATION

Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to his saints. To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ. For this I toil, struggling with all his energy that he powerfully works within me.

THE BEST WAY FOR ME TO BELIEVE THAT THE BUILDER IS WORTH HIS SALT IS WHETHER OR NOT THE HOUSE THAT HE BUILT IS STILL STANDING. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT WORDS ARE COMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH IF YOU STAND BEHIND THE PULPIT AND DON'T HAVE A LIFE THAT IS ANCHORED, STEADY, AND STRONG IN THE GOD WHO YOU SAY YOU SERVE.

TWO ARE BETTER THAN ONE, BECAUSE THEY HAVE A GOOD RETURN FOR THEIR WORK. IF ONE FALLS DOWN, HIS FRIEND CAN HELP HIM UP. BUT PITY THE MAN WHO FALLS AND HAS NO ONE TO HELP HIM UP!

THAT IS WHAT ILLUSTRATIONS DO. THEY OPEN UP THE WINDOWS AND LET LIGHT IN. YOU DON'T WANT A SERMON WITH ALL WINDOWS, OR A SERMON WITH NO WINDOWS.
