CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD PREACHER

 A GOOD CHRISTIAN PREACHER WILL GET FEEDBACK

Nothing will improve your preaching like thoughtful feedback. It’s encouraging to hear that weekly handful of _Good sermon today!_ compliments as you stand, saying hello to people after a worship service. But you also need careful, constructive criticism.

If you have other skilled preachers among your elders or even insightful non-preaching church members, ask them for regular critique. If you’re a solo Pastor, make friends with other local Pastors committed to expository preaching and evaluate one another. The practice is helpful to all of us. I didn’t seek preaching feedback in my early days. If I could go back in time, I would encourage myself to put it in place.
