Preaching The Text examines the weekly Bible Readings from the three-year lectionary. Dr. Steven Paulson and pastor John Hoyum present these Scripture readings with a particular emphasis on how the Gospel is proclaimed and heard in weekly preaching.

    Mark 2:23-28 – Pentecost 2 (B)

    Mark 2:23-28 – Pentecost 2 (B)

    On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss a story from Mark's gospel in which Jesus' disciples are accused of violating the Sabbath commandment for picking heads of grain on the holy day. Jesus explains, however, the true meaning of the Sabbath, which is God's blessing to human beings, not a human act of obedience toward God. Here we see where the law ends and the gospel begins.

    John 3:1-17 – Holy Trinity (B)

    John 3:1-17 – Holy Trinity (B)

    On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the texts for Holy Trinity Sunday, chiefly, the encounter of Jesus and Nicodemus in John 3. Here they discuss the proper way to preach on the Trinity, which is to use the doctrine of baptism as the entry point. To learn about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as one true God, we must begin with the promise of eternal life given through the water and the word at the font.

    John 15:26-27; 16:4b-15 – Pentecost

    John 15:26-27; 16:4b-15 – Pentecost

    On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the gospel reading from John for the Sunday of Pentecost. They focus upon the way in which the risen Christ isn't absent from his church, but present in a new way. Christ "spreads" himself out and remains bodily present in the Lord's Supper. And through the Holy Spirit, his word of absolution is preached.

    John 17:11b-19 – Easter 7 (B)

    John 17:11b-19 – Easter 7 (B)

    On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss Christ's prayer to the Father before his betrayal and crucifixion. In this prayer, we overhear the Son's address to his Father in love. To preach on Christ's prayer, they talk about how to take the address of Son to Father concerning those Christ has won, and turn it around into a promise given to those who belong to Christ.

    John 15:9-17 – Easter 6 (B)

    On this episode, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson talk about Christ's command that we love one another as he has loved us. Unlike the usual interpretation of this passage, Paulson and Hoyum talk about the necessity of good works and service to the neighbor that come forth naturally from faith in Christ. They also discuss some of the ways that preaching about love and friendship loses sight of Christ's cross.

    John 15:1-8 – Easter 5 (B)

    On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steven Paulson discuss Christ's famous statement that he is the vine, we are the branches. They also talk about Christian suffering and the way in which faith bears fruit in good works. In this way, God glorifies himself through suffering and the work of the gospel that forgives sins.
