"Preaching and Leading” — A Biblical Preaching Institute, Tuesday-Friday, June 4-7, 2024
Olford Ministries International/Oasis Event and Retreat Center 4000 Riverdale Rd., Memphis, Tennessee 38115
Pastors are involved in both preaching and leading. These two critical activities are interrelated and impact each other significantly. This Biblical Preaching Institute (June 4-7) seeks to address key aspects of both preaching and leadership. It is our conviction that solid biblical expository preaching is needed alongside of faithful biblical leadership in the local church. t is our desire to encourage and further equip pastors and other leaders in local church ministry as we engage with these two vital aspects of ministry. The time together will give an opportunity to hear biblical instruction, to fellowship with other pastors and leaders, and to use the time for personal reflection and enrichment. We are pleased to announce that joining us will be two guest speakers.
Rev. Dr. Bartholomew Orr will be speaking to us out of his 35+ years of faithful pastoral leadership at the Brown Missionary Baptist Church in Southaven, MS. He is in much demand as a preacher and speaker and has recently written two books, the most recent is encouraging leadership “outside the box.”
Also joining us will be the Rev. Dr. David Allen who, besides his pastoral ministry, has been a professor of expository preaching for many years. He is now serving as the Distinguished Professor of Practical Theology and Dean of the Adrian Rogers Center of Biblical Preaching at the Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary in Cordova, TN. He also is Founder and Editor-In-Chief of PreachingCoach. He is also a prolific author of articles, books and commentaries.
These guests will be joining pastor, preacher, teacher and author, Dr. Ted Rendall (our Resident Minister and Professor), myself (President) and the classic instruction of my late father, Dr. Stephen Olford (video).
