In a world that no longer wants to listen, the essential secret is not mastering certain preaching techniques, but being mastered by certain core convictions. Understand the necessary core convictions in preaching.

A core conviction in preaching is the need to communicate both: 1) the music of God’s radical love in Christ, and 2) the call to dance to that music, i.e. God’s radical call to gospel obedience.

The Apostle Paul’s letter to the Ephesians displays a pattern for Gospel-centered preaching that includes both indicatives and imperatives. In Ephesians, the Apostle Paul demonstrates a model for Gospel-centered preaching that includes both indicatives (chapters 1-3: who we are in Christ) and imperatives (chapters 4-6: what we do for Christ).

Harvard medical doctor, Atul Gawande, made an amazing discovery of a simple, practical tool that is proven to help pilots and surgeons be more effective. Learn how this tool can help preachers too.

One of the key ways to have more effective, Christ-centered messages is learning how to find and focus everything on the bible passage’s one unifying idea and answering four key questions.

The good news of the gospel includes the promise of a new humanity on earth through which God will carry out his mission to make all things new. Jesus calls this new humanity the church. He refers to it as a new society on earth that is like a great city on a hill. It's a new and better society that stands in stark contrast to all the oppression, injustice, and brokenness that fills the earth today.

During this time of year we’re often asked to consider giving financially to many worthy organizations and ministries. I realize that Pathway Learning is just one of many. Giving can be difficult and sometimes scary because it means that we are choosing to have less. But it’s important for us to give. Here are five reasons why we should give that I hope you’ll find encouraging.

As Pathway Learning prepares for 2020, we’re reaffirming four core commitments that I would like to share with you. All four commitments are centered on glorifying God and advancing his kingdom on earth, through his church, by the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. These commitments can truly make a lasting difference in the lives of people, communities, and entire nations into the next generation.

Make a bold, new, creative mistake, don't make this mistake. Don't make the mistake of not understanding the difference between a stated value and a core value. 

You visit a church and they've got the core values in the worship bulletin. They got the core values framed, but how do you know whether it really is a core value or a stated value?

Having looked at beliefs and having looked at behaviors, we're going to narrow in on the concept of values. Church planters often fail to understand the true underlying values of the church. Which as we'll see in this article, are often not the same as the churches stated articulated values.

We exist to help under-served church leaders develop churches that transform lives and communities worldwide. We're seeking more partners to invest in the next generation through Pathway Learning. Will you help church leaders develop churches that transform lives and communities?
