                10.1 Connect


                          It now time to create a total sermon with a dynamic introduction, a challenging conclusion,
                          and with real meat in the content of the message.  With these ingredients, our people will
                          certainly desire to listen, be fed God’s Word, and be challenged to alter their lives in
                          accordance with God’s desires.  Today we are going to try to put together all of what you
                          have been learning to this point.  Let’s get started….

                10.2 Objectives


                       1.  The student should be able to assimilate the information presented in Lessons to follow an
                       example of a sermon prepared from Acts 1:8.



                10.3 Putting it all Together



                        Using sound principles and methods of hermeneutics and applying the basic skills we’ve
                        acquired to formulate sermons for a preaching or teaching setting, let’s move from the
                        text to the sermon by exegeting Acts 1:8 and preparing an expository message for the
                        people of our day.

                   A.  Observation

                       Recall that observation answers the question, “What do I see?”

                       Applying skills of observation that were learned in your study of hermeneutics, carefully
                       examine the details of this text, making note of what you see. Do not concern yourself at this
                       point with determining what it means. Simply observe. In doing so, you might see some things
                       that have always been there, but that you haven’t noticed before.
