Overview
This text is for the Spirit-filled Bible teacher seeking to preach expository sermons in a manner that honors the Pentecostal/Charismatic tradition. It seeks to accomplish two crucial tasks: reclaim the office of teacher in the local Pentecostal pulpit, and provide a model for expository preaching that is faithful to Pentecostal preaching distinctives and the unique approach with which Pentecostals interpret Scripture. Jesus gave the church five offices: apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, and teacher (Eph 4:11). The office of teacher, though well represented in Pentecostal Bible schools, seminaries, and universities around the world, struggles to find full acceptance in local church pulpits. Some Pentecostal Bible-teaching pastors have probably noticed this and may even wonder if they belong in the Pentecostal movement. They do! The Pentecostal Bible-teaching pastor is deeply concerned about biblical fidelity in the pulpit. They're proud of their libraries and word studies, and they enjoy conducting research. The expository sermon is the primary tool for such Bible teachers. The model for such put forward in this book posits expository preaching not as a method for congregational learning (though it will function this way), but for the unapologetic, unabashed, exultative worship of Jesus Christ.

Reviews
""Jeff McAffee has written a book that's been a long time in coming. He presents a comprehensive treatment of the practice of expository preaching in the Pentecostal tradition. He engages Pentecostal and Evangelical practitioners and draws from their best insights. He has constructed a methodology that will be helpful to the novice and seasoned preacher. I expect this book to earn a place as a primary preaching text in Pentecostal churches and educational institutions. I will certainly use this text in my classes."" --Dan Tomberlin, Assistant Professor of Practical Theology, Pentecostal Theological Seminary, Cleveland, Tennessee ""Teaching As Worship is a timely and powerful contribution to the Pentecostal church. Jeff McAffee reminds us that faithful exposition of Scripture and Spirit-filled preaching are not at odds but beautifully aligned in the worship of Jesus Christ. This book will equip and encourage pastors to embrace the role of teacher with confidence while maintaining the passion and power that define our movement."" --Luke Barnett, Senior Pastor, Dream City Church, Phoenix, Arizona
