9Marks has just released their latest newsletter, and with it, they’ve gone from preachin’ to medlin’. Well, not really, but here’s the premise of this issue:
9Marks receives daily phone calls and emails from local church pastors asking for advice. Do you know how many questions we receive about preaching? None.
Questions about church membership? Lots. Questions about implementing church discipline? Plenty. About transitioning to a plural elder-led model? Quite a few. But preaching? Never.
Yet may I propose?as gingerly as I can?that 9Marks exists because these 1,231 pastors and those whom they statistically represent do not preach as they should?
I’m glad they said it and not me!
