Mary Hulst - Practical Wisdom for Preaching

  • Summary

  • For pastors who prepare and preach sermons week after week and year after year. You might expect the process to eventually become routine. Rev. Mary Hulst says it never does and it never should. Each week brings a new text, a new purpose, a new challenge, and a new calling to speak gospel truth to a world designed by dissonant messages.

    In her book, "A Little Handbook for Preachers: Ten Practical Ways to a Better Sermon by Sunday" Hulst describes the challenge and gives guidance to preachers on how to meet it. Hulst writes “What keeps me at it? Week after week is what keeps all of us at it. We believe that God Almighty, Lord of heaven and earth, actually uses people like us to proclaim the mysteries of faith. And we are thrilled and humbled at this calling.”

    Hulst was one of the first female graduates of Calvin Seminary, and one of our first female professors. She is currently chaplain at Calvin University. Laura De Young, 2017 Calvin Seminary alum and Pastor of Preaching and Worship at Community Christian Reformed Church in Kitchener, Ontario, spoke with Mary about the craft and calling of preaching.
