Expository Preaching - Methods of Exposition

Methods of Exposition

There are three ways in which texts are selected for exposition:

  • use of a lectionary (common in many mainline denominational churches),
  • lectio continuo, where each passage of the bible is read consecutively on each successive Sunday, or
  • letting the preacher or individual church decide which books or passages are examined (common in evangelical churches from both mainline denominations and independent churches).

Famous quotes containing the words methods and/or exposition:

    The methods by which a trade union can alone act, are necessarily destructive; its organization is necessarily tyrannical.
    Henry George (1839–1897)

    Hard times accounted in large part for the fact that the exposition was a financial disappointment in its first year, but Sally Rand and her fan dancers accomplished what applied science had failed to do, and the exposition closed in 1934 with a net profit, which was donated to participating cultural institutions, excluding Sally Rand.
    —For the State of Illinois, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
