from Equipped Workshop hosted by Lehman Avenue church of Christ · host equippedworkshop
April 24, 2026 - Equipped 2026 - Day 2 - 1:30 PM Session Location: Room 116 Instructor: Mike Vestal Title: Preaching Seriously on Sin Summary On April 24, 2026, Mike Vestal urged taking sin seriously in preaching, using Genesis as a foundational lens. He defined preaching through eight components: the proclamation of divine truth by a man of God, derived through proper interpretive method, proclaimed to people in an engaging manner to achieve a desired purpose, and ultimately for God’s glory and the salvation of souls. He underscored sin’s gravity—idolatry, rebellion, and distorted love—while contrasting its devastation with God’s greater grace and redemption. Genesis was presented as essential for grasping core biblical themes and contemporary issues including origins, the image of God, gender, marriage, family, deception, law, promise, conflict, war, and sexual immorality. Practical illustrations included Jacob’s life and pastoral counsel on loving people, preaching with urgency and authority, and confronting heart idols. The lecture ended with recommended resources for preaching Genesis. Duration 41:21
