Super blessings🙌🏽🙌🏽to you Expositors Collective, the organizers, facilitators, and Calvary Chapel. You're a generational blessing🌟🌟🌟. Every second of these 3 days made sense. *No regrets🙅‍♂🙅‍♂.*

Thanks for the the great work, I'm starting with inductive Bible study for my church leaders right now

This is one of my best highlights of the year. Greatly edified, thank you for organizing Expositors conference.

Praise God for the entire arrangement of the Expositors Collective Uganda Conference. I was inspired by the teachings and enriched by the practical ways of preaching the word of God.

Fellow #preachers and #bible teachers, let me encourage you to listen to @expositcllctv podcasts. I wish I had known this existed for as long as it has. Some really good content and discussion. It's encouraging and challenging. Just what I need!

John Whittaker speaks about the need to hone our homiletical skills so that we can connect with our congregations as complicated individuals, rather than a block of abstract "listeners." Homiletics is the study of how to effectively communicate the message of the Christian faith through preaching and teaching. It involves understanding the biblical texts, the needs and concerns of the audience, and the use of language and other communication techniques to convey the message in a way that is meaningful and impactful

John Whittaker is a preacher, teacher and pastor. He holds theology and ministry degrees from Boise Bible College, Cincinnati Bible Seminary, and a doctorate in preaching from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary - the only reason for all of that is to help bring God's word into the lives of people more effectively. John has been serving in ministry for 30 years. He has served as a Professor of Preaching and New Testament at Boise Bible College for 19 years. During that time, he also helped plant a church in Kuna, Idaho, where he led the adult education ministry and preached for 11 years. He has taught classes for Eternity Bible College and taught and preached in various places around the country and the world. Most recently, he served for nearly 4 years as one of the teaching and campus pastors at The Pursuit, in Boise and is currently on the preaching coaching team at Calvary Boise.

“The function of the pulpit is not to entertain, to amuse, to satisfy an idle curiosity; it is to instruct, to inspire, to fire the heart and mind, to implant within us noble desires and ambitions, the Lord Jesus Christ, and to beget within them a passion for him.”

- Francis James Grimké
