What Is Preaching?

What is preaching? Does the way the Bible is preached affect the growth and depth of a church? Is it possible to preach truths of the Bible and still not bring God the glory? What helps Christians grow more, topical sermons on practical issues or expository sermons on books of the Bible, verse-by verse?

I am sharing this for us Christians (including myself) to assess carefully what kind of teaching we are sitting under, and what it is leading us to live like, in the light of eternity. We are here to bring God the most glory. Are we doing that with the preaching we are worshiping God with?

If I'm not wrong, Bethlehem Baptist church, which John Piper is a pastor of, is going through and studying the book of John. Here is Piper on "What is Preaching?" as he preaches on John 3:14-18.

James 1:22
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
