My I.N.S.P.I.R.E.D framework has the last step called Dialogue. The art of feed-backing your sermon. You have to have the courage to review how it went. The more consistent you are with feedback the quicker you will grow. Below are some great thoughts from my friend Ben Graves who is such a phenomenal preacher. ------- Couple quick thoughts I’ve had on debriefing my own preaching… worst case scenario is you dwell TOO long on how bad you thought it went OR how GOOD you thought it went. Both are dangerous… these are the questions I went thru this last week after not feeling strong about how I executed… 1. WAS I FAITHFUL TO GODS WORD… at the end of the day can I say this word was accurate to scripture. If yes… I can stop the mental trip out a bit :) 2. Why was it unclear and what did my prep look like? (Usually the sermon not landing or hitting is found in this question) 3. ONE TAKEAWAY FOR NEXT WEEK… just one. (In my prep, in my prayer, in my organization, in my delivery… one thing I’m thinking on going into the next week) Then I prayed on Monday “god it’s behind me all I can control is what I have this week let me grow and be more faithful to communicating your word” disappointment can’t drive your prep… Jesus and helping people MUST!

We have nearly 160 young preachers in the community in less than a week! Do you me a favor and hit the Map tab and look at where everyone is from. It’s hard to not think of the ripple of impact this community can have in the world! Imagine a young preachers on every continent? (Antarctica? lol) I want to welcome everyone to Dear Young Preacher the community. The vision is simple: THE PREACHERS OF TOMORROW, PREPARING TODAY! Idk about you but I don’t just want to be a little shooting star in the Kingdom of God. I want to be someone ready to carry the Gospel into the future. Make no mistake, I’m preparing right now! My heart is for this platform to be a source of inspiration, encouragement, and edification for you as a preacher of the Gospel! What you can expect: 1. A constant stream of helpful tools/inspiration in the area of preaching and communication. 2. Occasional zoom calls on different topics. 3. Posts where we can collaborate on ideas & a space for you to meet other preachers. 4. Wherever the Lord takes this. Some things you should do: 1. Download the Skool App. It’s more convenient. 2. Engage with posts. Add value. Share the loot lol. 3. Invite 3 young preachers you know! Let’s get to 300! Lastly, Comment an area you would love to grow in as a preacher?

A thought from week one of my DYP, 8-Week Coaching. Jeremiah wasn't just set apart to be a follower of God, he was set apart for a holy office! DON'T BE CASUAL ABOUT THE THING GOD CALLED YOU TO DO! 🙌🏽 OWN IT. "I AM A PREACHER!" ““Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.””- Jeremiah‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Didn't get to ask on the call, so I'll drop here: What's 1 book you recommend reading? 1 preacher you recommend listening to? 1 Conference you recommend attending to get poured into? Would love to hear what’s impacted you to stay sharp!

Thank you everyone for the help. Here is the audio of the message I preached on Palm Sunday. Would love any feedback to grow and get better.
