Expository Preaching in a TED Talk World

In this episode of Truth and Grace, Pastors Tim Carter and Jake Carver dive deep into the beauty and biblical importance of expository preaching. As VBS wraps up and a summer in the Psalms begins, they tackle growing trends in the modern church—from sermon-lite TED Talk styles to the growing reliance on online pastors—and explain why preaching the Word verse by verse remains essential.

They cover:

• What is expository preaching?

• Exegesis vs. eisegesis (and why it matters)

• The pitfalls of topical sermons

• Why your local pastor matters more than a podcast

• How Scripture feeds the church and protects us from spiritual drift

Whether you're a longtime listener or just tuning in, this episode challenges you to think biblically about the role of the pulpit—and your place in the local church.
