Leaders Training Encounter 09 Workshop

One of the great needs in Mexico and Latin America is the development of Bible Expositors. Around 1 % of Latin Americans pastors have finished university and many who are pastoring that have finished university have no received any formal Bible education. Most of the students who participated in the University Student Ministy do not have well trained pastors.

So when I was asked to lead a workshop on Bible Exposition, I took advantage of the opportunity. The workshop presented the basics for Bible Exposition.
  1. What is the main point of the text?
  2. How does the biblical author support what he is saying?
  3. What results did he expect from his audience?
  4. What does that mean for us today?
The first week we selected texts form 2 Timothy, and the second week we investigated Haggai (which was more difficult). Several had opportunities to preach their text in the Leadership Training Encounter.

At the end of the second week we took that last day to the coffee shop. It was a good time to talk informally about Biblical Exposition.
