Training Team

The course will be led by Tim Miller, with support from Ian Coffey.

“When we preach, most of us have a particular style that we’ve picked up, often without even thinking about it. In this course, we will give you tools to explore how you use the Bible in preaching in light of contemporary demands and challenges in the world. I’m excited to explore and unpack together why we do what we do, and how Scripture speaks timelessly into today’s culture.”
 – Tim Miller
