In a recent article, D.A. Carson discusses six challenges for preaching in the 21st century. The article can be read online at preaching.com here. As always, Carson’s observations are worth taking time to read.
Carson concludes by writing:
“Our motivation to understand and address people in the 21st century is not to domesticate the gospel by constant appeal to cultural analysis, but to prove effective ambassadors of the Sovereign whose Word we announce. For one day the kingdom of this world will become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign for ever and ever (Rev. 11:15). It is precisely because we are anchored in eternity that we are so utterly resolved, like Paul, to address lost men and women who must one day meet their God.”
