The Haddon Robinson Center for Preaching at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary is delighted to introduce the\u00a0Biblical Preaching with Haddon Robinson Masterclass<\/em>. This class consists of ten, 45-60 minute lessons. The class content is based on the late Dr. Robinson\u2019s book, Biblical Preaching: The Development and Delivery of Expository Messages<\/em>\u00a0as well as his class lectures. Each lesson includes written material, lecture, a sample sermon, and suggested reading for further development.

I have been fascinated with preaching since I was in my early teens. As a boy I began a series of diaries that recorded the tedious events of a fairly humdrum life. Years later when cleaning out my father\u2019s apartment, I came across one of those diaries. Apparently on a Thursday evening I had gone to a service at the First Baptist Church in New York City to hear Dr. Harry Ironside preach. Ironside was the pastor of the Moody Church in Chicago. I can\u2019t imagine what attracted me to a religious gathering on a Thursday evening. At the time I was sure that God kept office hours on Sunday morning. Yet I wrote in my diary, \u201cSome preachers preach for an hour and it seems like thirty minutes; others preach for thirty minutes and it seems like an hour. I wonder what the difference is?\u201d I have spent my life trying to answer that question.<\/p>\n
