Preaching is an art that balances the intricate dance between the divine inspiration of Scripture and the practical application of its truths to everyday life. Among the various styles of preaching, textual sermons hold a distinguished place for their focused and in-depth exploration of Scripture. This book, 1000 Textual Sermon Outlines for Today's Preacher, is designed to be a comprehensive resource for ministers seeking to deliver powerful, biblically-grounded messages.

What is a Textual Sermon?

A textual sermon is a sermon that draws its main topic and points directly from a specific verse or a small passage of Scripture. Unlike topical sermons, which address a subject from multiple Scripture references, or expository sermons, which expound on a larger passage or chapter, textual sermons concentrate on unpacking the depth and richness of a particular text. The main points of a textual sermon are derived from the natural divisions within the verse or verses, providing a structured and clear message that remains true to the context and intent of the Scripture.

Notable Exponents of Textual Preaching

Throughout history, many renowned preachers have employed textual sermons to great effect. John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, was known for his powerful and methodical preaching, often using textual outlines to convey complex theological truths in an understandable manner. Charles Simeon, a leader in the evangelical movement of the Church of England, meticulously developed his textual sermons to illuminate Scripture clearly and practically. Charles Haddon Spurgeon, often called the "Prince of Preachers," utilized textual sermons to deliver his profound and moving messages. His ability to draw deep spiritual insights from single verses captivated his audiences and left a lasting impact on Christian preaching. J.C. Ryle, an influential Anglican bishop and writer, also exemplified the effectiveness of textual preaching in his sermons and writings, emphasizing the practical application of biblical truths.

Structuring Textual Sermons

The structure of a textual sermon is based on a careful parsing of the selected verse or verses. The number of points in each sermon outline corresponds to the natural divisions within the text. For example, a verse with multiple clauses or key phrases might naturally lend itself to a sermon with three or four main points, while another might only provide two. Each point serves to elucidate a specific aspect of the text, providing clarity and insight for the congregation.

The process of parsing the text involves:

  1. Identifying Key Phrases or Clauses: Breaking down the verse to highlight its essential components.
  2. Determining the Main Points: Deriving the main points from these components to ensure the sermon remains focused and scripturally grounded.
  3. Developing Subpoints and Illustrations: Expanding on the main points with subpoints, explanations, and illustrations to aid understanding and application. We have left this step up to you. We have provided the skeleton, and you can now prayerfully add the rest.
