This Sunday I’ll be preaching about salvation. Don’t get me wrong, every message I preach is about salvation, but this weekend the focus is completely on salvation ... our greatest need in the world.
And since salvation is the most vital and eternal issue before any of us, we need to make sure everyone possible understands it. And we need to say it so clearly, so simply, so succinctly, that no one can miss it. That’s what I will be doing on Sunday at Prestonwood in Plano. Jarrett Stephens will preach the same message at Saturday Nights at Prestonwood, and Marc Rylander will do the same at Prestonwood North on Sunday.
There’s a lot of preaching going on around the world and in American pulpits each weekend, but very little salvation is being preached. We do a lot of theological talk, a lot of sermonizing, a lot of feel good messages, but how many will actually hear the simple plan of salvation?
If you live in the Dallas area, I invite you to come either Saturday at 6:00 p.m., Sunday at 9:15 and 11:00 a.m. in Plano, or Sunday at 9:30 p.m. at Prestonwood North. And why don’t you bring someone who needs to hear this message? Is there a friend or family member you’ve been wanting to invite? This would be a good day to do it.
If those people don’t live in the area, let them know they can live stream the message at 11:00 a.m. on Sunday. Just go to powerpoint.org.
Tell someone ...

A couple of years ago, you preached on salvation and my husband and I had a friend visiting with us who wasn't saved. She went forward that Sunday and was saved!! I always remember that day... and love when you preach those sermons.
There was an unregenerate teenager (well behaved) sitting behind me whose conscience was pricked when you spoke about spiritual deadness and our inability to know God outside of saving grace. I am grateful that God placed me in front of him Sunday morning. I gave him a gospel tract before I left for which his mother (who had brought him) thanked me. Excellent sermon.
