What keeps a pastor preaching faithfully when ministry feels discouraging?
In this episode, H. B. Charles Jr. joins Matt Smethurst and Ligon Duncan to talk about expository preaching, sermon preparation, pastoral application, grief, perseverance, and why the power for ministry is still found in God’s Word.
H. B. became a pastor at 17 years old and has preached through seasons of pain and pressure. He offers wisdom and encouragement for pastors who want to faithfully “preach the Word” for the long haul.
