On Reading for Preaching
from Rooted & Unwithered · host B. C. Newton
What are some reading habits for growing in preaching? Here's a few suggestions. In Relatione (relevant links) Eowyn’s Recommendation: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (consider also the BBC Radio Dramas) ESV Reader's Bible ( which also comes in a six-volume version) I'll do future episodes sharing resources for learning the original language (and there are many!), but for now, John Dobson's books on Greek and Hebrew have both been excellent. ESV Expository Commentary | this is an excellent basic commentary set to invest in Best Commentaries on Each Book of the Bible Top 5 Commentaries on Every Book of the Bible Creeds, Confessions, and Catechisms | this is a great place to begin reading creeds and confessions Ex Interrete (a hodgepodge of Internet items that I enjoyed) Shepherding Our Children through Hardships and Suffering Seeing our children suffer through trials can be extremely difficult. Even parents who are well-equipped to cope with their own problems often find themselves feeling helpless when their child is the one hurting. How can we shepherd our children through adversity in a healthy, God-honoring way? When troubles find our children, here are three ways we can support them. 2 Samuel 12: On Nathan’s Brave Parable, David’s Belated Repentance, and the LORD’s Merciful Response (Bible Talk, Ep.103) The Bible Talk podcast is easily in my top five favorite podcasts.
