Page "Expository preaching" Paragraph 3

There are a number of other techniques for preaching, some of which are covered in this article including textual, topical, topical-expository, and lectionary.

According to the proponents of expository preaching the weaknesses of the other forms generally center around their inability to strictly expose the original meaning of the text.

There is of course overlap between all types as they share one text.

The expository method of preaching is favored among those who believe that the Bible is the very word of God and thus worthy of being presented in its purest essence, rather than modifying the message to match the characteristics of the audience.
