What is the MacArthur Center Expository Preaching Workshop?

John MacArthur says expository preaching is “preaching in such a way that the meaning of the Bible passage is presented entirely and exactly as it was intended by God.”

The MacArthur Center workshop helps any preacher no matter his experience—do that more effectively. It gives you the tools to...

Analyze the text
Outline the passage
Identify the original meaning
Organize your sermon
Use illustrations effectively
Craft compelling introductions and conclusions

Who Can Attend?

These workshops bring together men who share a commitment to God’s truth, who want to know what it means and explain it accurately. Whether you’re a pastor, a Bible study leader, or someone considering ministry, if you’re invested in the craft of expository preaching, this workshop is for you.
