grow Your preaching SKILLS
CONNECT with Like-minded preachers &
reclaim your personal life!
Join the online community helping preachers write compelling sermons, protect their sabbath, and THRIVE week after week—while preaching with more confidence than ever.
“The Collective+ has enabled a transformation of my...preaching and ministry in ways I had hoped a sabbatical or D.Min. would.”
Compelling preaching requires more than a couple homiletics courses
Your training gave you a foundation.
But preaching is a craft—a practice where skill meets inspiration.
Where growth requires ongoing support, instruction, practice, and feedback.
But our current continuing education model relies on short-term, one-time conferences, workshops, and books.
Preaching is a Spiritual practice
So often, prayer and scripture study for their own sake get sidelined for the tyranny of the urgent—leading to stress, insecurity, and burnout.
When we approach sermon prep as prayer, we tune into God in our day-to-day lives.
The message reveals itself without grasping and desperation. .
We preach good news because we’ve been formed by the good news ourselves first.
Nurturing our own connection to God helps us offer the message only we can preach—authentically and confidently.
Plus, preaching must fit into the rest of ministry—and life
You’re determined to prioritize sermon prep this week.
But the church water heater breaks, a last-minute meeting demands your presence, and an unanticipated loss has you preparing a funeral homily in addition to your Sunday sermon.
Instead of spending Saturday night with your family, you find yourself writing your sermon at the eleventh hour…again.
Preachers need a reliable process to prepare an effective sermon within the limited time available.
“After 31 years of ministry, Backstory Preaching stokes a fire within me to excel in the living and proclaiming of the Good News. BsP provides the method & motivation.”
