How Dark Nights of the Soul Prepare the Preacher to Authentically Call Others to Repentance

Sam McCabe, a singer-songwriter and worship leader from Houston, Texas, speaks with Mike about quarterly preaching, and the pitfalls and opportunities that are available to those who preach messages and then wait three months until the next time! He speaks about the dangers of being over-prepared, and the opportunities to meditatively think through a passage and its implications in the long gestation period leading up to a teaching. Sam also talks about the relationship between the teaching of the Word and the worship of the church - which one prepares for the other? Additionally there is some very practical advice on how late in the week a preaching pastor should suggest songs to the worship team!
