Pastoral Pointer | Personal Illustrations

Few illustrations grab attention and create interest like personal stories from a pastor’s life, but the path to clarity has some hidden and dangerous landmines. Is it too personal? Does it embarrass family members? Does it distract from the goal of the sermon and the meaning of the text? Dr. York helps preachers think through the purpose and process of using personal illustrations without hurting relationship or the exposition of the Scriptures.
