Boldness and authority in preaching

Dear friends

One of the most enjoyable aspects of doing Two Ways News is interacting regularly with so many of you—through emails and casual conversations as we bump into each other.

This week, I thought it was time to pause and deal with a couple of the interesting questions that have come in recently, both of them about gospel ministry in its different aspects:

- One is about what makes gospel ministry grow, and whether we can learn from the success of other churches or ministries, or whether everything is too contextual;

- The other is in response to our recent discussion about pastors and pastoring, and asks (quite reasonably) whether we have anything positive to say about the ‘office’ or ‘position’ of elder or pastor?

I hope you find the answers stimulating. (As usual, the text below is an edited summary of the longer ramblier audio conversation.)
