Pastor Mike Abendroth dives into the often-overlooked art of listening to a sermon, using insights from the great 18th-century preacher George Whitefield. Drawing from Whitefield’s six key principles, Mike discusses how believers should approach sermons—not merely as passive listeners, but as active worshipers seeking transformation. He emphasizes the importance of coming with a teachable heart, diligently paying attention, avoiding undue criticism of the preacher, and making personal applications of the message. Mike also unpacks the need for prayer before, during, and after a sermon, recognizing that true spiritual change depends on God’s power. Filled with humor, historical anecdotes, and biblical wisdom, this episode is a practical guide for those who want to maximize their engagement with God’s Word every Sunday.
