In this video, Rob Nieves discusses the process of crafting your very first sermon. Starting with the question of where to begin, Rob shares three valuable tips for sermon preparation that can be applied to all messages. The first tip is to start with the Bible, as it is essential to base your message on scripture rather than personal thoughts or inspirations. Rob emphasizes the importance of aligning your message with what the Bible says about the chosen topic. He guides viewers on how to delve into the scripture to find relevant passages related to the topic, ensuring a solid biblical foundation.
Moving on to the second tip, Rob highlights the significance of thorough study. He encourages listeners to read and analyze the chosen scripture, exploring subtopics and asking questions that arise along the way. Going deeper into the context and historical background of the scripture helps to understand the original intent and how it translates to the present and future.
Lastly, Rob discusses the structure of a sermon. He introduces the "me we God you we" framework, where the speaker shares their personal experience before involving the audience and then exploring what the scripture says. Finally, the audience is asked to reflect on how they personally respond to what God says, leading to a call for action and change. Rob provides a brief summary of this structure, highlighting the importance of presenting the prepared message in a packaged and easily digestible manner for the listeners.
