2. Expository Preaching
Expository and preaching are two words that most students either don't know or don't like, but we are doing everything we can to rescue them from that mistake. In an age where people are gathering teachers that will tickle their ears(2 Tim 4:3), it is crucially important that we give them the truth and we do so unabashedly and passionately. "God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. (1 Corinth 1:21)" Preaching the gospel saves and sanctifies. It is the mode that God has ordained therefore we stand behind it wholeheartedly. So, we are dedicated to teaching the scriptures with diligence.
For clarification expository preaching means that we take the ancient text and draw out meaning for our modern context (students in our present day). We do not use the scriptures as a jumping off point for talking about what we thing would be good (opinions), but instead we let the scriptures say what they want and we obey.
