Sermons — not entertainment or big personalities — are central to the building up of Christ’s church. That’s Paul’s point in Romans 16:25-26. Given this fact, we must take listening to sermons seriously, and here’s how: (1) don’t listen with a careless heart; (2) expect God to speak; (3) admit that God knows better than you; (4) hear sermons every week; (5) do what the Word of God commands, and do it today; (6) do not entertain prejudice against the preacher; (7) make specific applications; and (8) take the sermon home and ruminate on it. Know this: the preaching of the gospel not only focuses on how you are saved, but how you are transformed. So, when the word of God is preached, listen like your life depends on it — because it does!
