The sermons that you’ll find here are broadly evangelical in nature – although I’d be thrilled to serve some pastors in other Christian traditions that honor and preach the Word of God! Since this website is intended to help and bless pastors across the denominational spectrum, and I don’t represent or promote any specific denomination or theological distinctives, Resources for Pastors does not present a full statement of faith, other than the Apostles’ Creed. However, let me state unequivocally and unapologetically that I believe the Old and New Testaments, inerrant as originally given, were verbally inspired by God and a complete revelation of His will for the salvation of people. The Scriptures, which I hold in the highest regard, are the divine and final rule of Christian faith and practice.

I believe you will find that the vast majority of sermon material from Resources for Pastors follows widely-accepted evangelical theology that aligns with most denominations’ statements of faith. Having said that, here are a couple examples of the kinds of things you could watch for when working with one of our sermons. First, you may want to make some minor edits in a few sermons, if necessary, based on where you align yourself on the Calvinist vs. Arminian continuum. Second, a sermon that references spiritual gifts might mention certain gifts from a continuationist perspective (i.e. that all the gifts are still available to the church today). For those whose faith tradition is cessationist (believing that some gifts ceased after the Apostolic age), you would just want to delete references to the gifts that you believe have ceased. But I’m convinced you will find these types of situations to be very rare as we partner with you in communicating God’s Word!
