LJO Institute of Preaching

Statement of Purpose

brehm single 4 The ongoing goals of the institute include: promoting preaching that is biblical, Christ-centered and empowered by the Spirit. The institute will be conducting three day “Preaching with Passion” conferences. These are scheduled for October and January each year. They include the formation of groups for maximizing preaching and assuring personal and professional enrichment.

Empowering leaders with creative and dynamic church administration ideas and reinforcing preaching that calls and equips the laity for ministry is a part of the focus of the institute.

Special Doctor of Ministry program lectures will be held in designated seminars and the institute will begin the work of having Dr. Ogilvie’s papers, published works, historical papers, photographs and memorabilia available in the Fuller Theological Seminary library. In addition, there will be a Chair of Preaching established within the School of Theology.
