This, in a nutshell, is preaching. Sound too simple? Albert Mohler, the president of one of the largest seminaries in the world, defines preaching using these three little words.

• a loss of confidence in the power of the word
• an infatuation with technology
• an embarrassment before the biblical text
• an evacuation of biblical content
• a focus on felt needs
• an absence of gospel
