Obstacles and Opportunities for Sound Doctrine
In this message, I explore several reasons why people are put off by doctrine. Then, we explore how to do doctrine well: accurately, practically, and devotionally.
The Holy Spirit in Discipleship
The Pastors Conference is excellent all the way around. I was refreshed, inspired, and challenged. Kevin DeYoung’s message on Preaching was filled with wisdom for preachers old and new.
I had the opportunity to speak on the Holy Spirit and covered three areas: the Personal Spirit, Powerful Spirit, and Creation-Perfecting Spirit. Most of this content will be available in my forthcoming book, Here in Spirit: Knowing the Spirit who Creates, Sustains, and Transforms Everything.
Sessions from The Mission of God (Dublin)
This summer I had the privilege of serving pastors in Ireland. The theme of the conference was The Mission of God. Dr. Tim Ward also gave two helpful lectures on preaching and application, with some interesting reflections on generating application that is, and is not, warranted from a text in redemptive-historical preaching. Here is the audio:
Session One – Jonathan Dodson  “Surviving God’s Mission in the City, Genesis 18:22 – 19:38″
Session Two – Jonathan Dodson  “Evangelism in a Secular Cultureâ€
Session Three – Tim Ward  “Effective application (part 1)â€
Session Four – Tim Ward “Effective application (part 2)â€
Session Seven – Jonathan Dodson  “Gospel community in a secular society, 1 Peter 2:1-11″
T.C. Hammond Theological Lecture with Q&A: “Spiritual Friendshipâ€Â (Jonathan Dodson)
