D. A. Carson on Preaching the Gospel


“To write a brief chapter on how to preach the Gospels feels a bit like offering a how-to manual prescribing how to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel by introducing paint-by-numbers. It is not just the real task has complexities that mock such reductionism; there is also the little matter of the unquantifiable gifts and calling of the preacher. Moreover, there is nothing to substitute for unction, for which careful instruction, no matter how important, is not substitute.”

D. A. Carson, “Preaching the Gospels,” in Preaching the New Testament, ed. Ian Paul and David Wenham (Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 2013), 17.

Dr. Roy Zuck (1932-2013)

  
Dr. Roy Zuck has gone to be with the Lord. There is a nice tribute to his life and ministry here. One of my regrets in life has been that I was unable to have him as my professor before he retired from teaching in 1996. I did have the opportunity to get to know him a bit in the process of getting a couple of articles published in Bibliotheca sacra and I will always be grateful for the editorial work that he did on the first draft of my dissertation. I will miss seeing Dr. Zuck around but I treasure the times we were able to have lunch or chat.
