Introduction from the Editor
As Rev. Dr. Jon Payne says, the Westminster Larger Catechism is a forgotten treasure. It is not only something that PCA ordained officers are to subscribe to but they also ought to use them for every day ministry. In particular, this ought to shape the way we preach and listen to preaching. In this lecture, Dr. Payne explains the heart behind WLC 155 and what would happen if we embraced a Westminsterian understanding of preaching. This lecture comes from the 2021 Preachers and Preaching Lectures at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
