How to Listen to a Sermon: Practical Help from the Prophet Ezekiel – Part Two
This coming Lord’s Day, we will continue our examination of Ezekiel 3:17-21. Our topic, as prompted by the text, is how we are to listen to a sermon. We’ve suggested that Ezekiel the Old Testament prophet is giving us some very practical lessons on how we are to hear the preaching of the Word, even as New Testament Christians far removed from Ezekiel’s time and context.
Just as a refresher, we’ve noted that listening to a sermon requires 1) a certain mindset, 2) proper expectations, and 3) the appropriate response. This week we will probe further into the expectations needed and the response that is demanded.
