A wise saying in regards to preaching is "You don’t have to hit a home run every time, but you better get a single!". Once a new church starts having weekly services that involve leaders teaching on a weekly basis, time for planning becomes minimal. Therefore, it is important to take sufficient time early in the life of the church to develop a preaching plan for a significant amount of time. Whether you are preaching message series on topics or books of the bible, if sufficient planning does not take place, the pressure begins to mount from week to week to come up with a something clean and polished. Developing a preaching plan allows for all aspects of the weekly worship service to perform at their best since they know well in advance what direction the messages are going. This class will give practicial tips in developing a preaching plan for the new church.
