29m
In this episode of No-Co Radio, Pastor Mike and his son, Luke, transition from their previous discussions on family life and current events to focus deeply on the theology and practice of preaching . The conversation centers on Jesus Christ as the "Prince of Preachers" and explores His "prophetic office"—one part of the threefold office of prophet, priest, and king. Mike and Luke discuss the distinctions between preaching and teaching, suggesting that while teaching may focus on technical exegesis, preaching is a special, ordained act intended to give Christ to people burdened by sin and trials . They also provide guidance on how congregants should evaluate a church, urging listeners to prioritize the "three marks" of a true church—faithful preaching of the gospel, proper administration of the sacraments, and church discipline—over secondary factors like musical style or facility amenities . The episode concludes with a reflection on the ultimate purpose of ministry: consistently revealing the "glories of Christ" to the congregation.
