The first ever Preach Better, Fail Often workshop is coming to NW Ohio.
What will it be like?
Lots of teaching segments (about 45 minutes each), with plenty of time for questions and interaction… plus a few labs at the end to work on material you bring.
Why offer this?
Because I’ve learned a few things in my own preaching journey that I want to share to help you improve your preaching. And because, now more than ever: preaching matters.
Where?
St. Mark’s Lutheran Church
(Multipurpose Room)
315 S. College Dr.
Bowling Green, OH 43402
When?
Tuesday, March 3, 2015
9 am – 4:30 pm
Can I get a preview?
Of course. Here are the main workshop titles:
1. Deconstructing the sermon: What are we doing when we preach?
2. One thing: Focus and preaching
3. Structure: The outline secret that has changed everything for me
4. The tomb is empty: The urgency of preaching
5. Miscellaneous drawer: Memorizing and the ancients. Slides, PowerPoint and visuals, oh my! (Plus whatever comes up.)
I attended your workshop with Mike Weaver last year. Will there be labs where a few of us will get to share our work and be critiqued in a safe environment?
Yes. We’re hoping to spend the last 1-2 hours doing just that.
Bring a sermon that worked, a sermon that sucked, or one you are working on.
What’s the cost?
$147 through February 23 (midnight).

What about lunch?
Still working out the details.
Make sure you have a high-protein breakfast before you arrive.
Is there an attendance limit?
Yes. Because of the nature of the workshop, we will be limiting it to 20 participants.
Will I get a glossy workbook with lots of QR codes?
Probably not.
But you might get a minimalist comb-bound old-school workbook assembled the evening before at FedEx Office.
Will childcare be provided?
I wish we could… but unfortunately we can’t.
