Christ-Centered Preaching

“Christ is the center of the Scriptures (Lk 24:25-27; Jn 5:39, 46; 2Ti 3:14-15) and, therefore, must be the center of our preaching. To preach expositionally is to preach Christ from any passage of God’s Word. Preaching that does not proclaim Christ is not biblical exposition in the best sense of the term; but the same can be said of the type of preaching in which the text is spiritualized to see Christ where He is not.

In this extraordinary book, Bryan Chapell helps us avoid both errors. If you want to faithfully expound the Scriptures, I urge you to read this book with great attention and put into practice the principles taught therein. Both you and those who listen to you will be greatly blessed as you contemplate “the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ” (2Co 4:6) in each of your expositions, resulting in a transformation “from glory to glory in the same image” of our blessed Lord and Savior (2Co 3:18). I wholeheartedly recommend this book.” — Sugel Michelén, pastor and preacher; author of De parte de Dios y delante de Dios and co-author of Gracia sobre gracia: la nueva Reforma en el mundo hispano.
