Pastor Matt Chandler, of the Village Church, will join the B21 Panel to be held at this year’s 9Marks Conference @ SEBTS. The Panel will focus on the topic “Gospel-Centered Preaching in the Local Church.” Pastor Chandler is well-known in the evangelical world for his contributions to this topic (see video clip above). B21 is thankful to add him to this panel and we look forward to learning from him.
The B21 panel is being held in conjunction with the 9Marks conference on “Biblical Theology” held at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Questions to be Considered:
It is alarming that in evangelicalism so many preachers have jettisoned the weekly preaching of the gospel in order to regularly give their congregations “practical tips” on how to live a nice Christian life. It seems that this reality is driven by a misunderstanding of the gospel. Many preachers/Christians see the gospel as merely the “plan of salvation” or the way one enters the Christian life, but once they’ve believed it and entered the faith now they need to learn how a Christian behaves. Now, they need tips on how to live a better life. Preachers who do this don’t see the gospel as practical or as applicable to everyday life.
And yet, in this climate, there is beginning to be a re-emphasis on the centrality of the gospel for all of life and a renewed interest in gospel-centered preaching. It’s becoming a buzz word. But, there seems to be confusion about what gospel-centered preaching actually is, what it sounds like, what it does, how one should do it, and so on…
It seems that every young seminarian has experienced sitting down in a seminary chapel to hear a preacher who holds up his Bible and says, “We have to do expository preaching or we aren’t really preaching the Bible,” only to have that preacher set his Bible down after that and use one verse as a diving board into tips he wants to share with the preacher boys on what ministry is like. Most preachers claim to be expository preachers, but it seems as though very few actually do it.
In the same way, no one would voluntarily claim “I’m NOT a gospel-centered preacher.” Everyone thinks they are, and yet we hear testimony of so many young people who when they actually hear gospel-centered preaching say “I’ve never heard anything like that. Who does that? Where can I hear more of that? How can I learn to do that?” No one would claim that they are not gospel-centered, but people may mean different things when we say it.
It is in this context that Baptist21 is excited to announce the opportunity to host a B21 Panel Luncheon at the 9 Marks Conference at SEBTS on Friday September 10th from approximately 12:15pm-1:30pm.

The plenary speakers will be Danny Akin, Thabiti Anyabwile, Matt Chandler, Mark Dever, and David Platt.
The topic for this year’s panel will be “Gospel-Centered Preaching in the Local Church.” This theme will combine the discussion from last year’s 9 Marks conference (expository preaching) and this year’s conference (biblical theology).
This panel will aim to bring greater clarity to what gospel-centered preaching actually is and what it isn’t. Here are some other things that will be discussed:
We are going to have an incredible lineup of experienced and competent preachers to help us think through these important issues:
Where: SEBTS Multi-Purpose Room in the Ledford Student Center
When: Sept. 10, 12:15-1:30 (after the Sermon Review for Session 1)

Baptist21 held its 2nd annual B21 Panel at the SBC. The panel took place in Orlando during Tuesday’s Lunch at the SBC. The members of the panel were Danny Akin, Matt Chandler, Ronnie Floyd, Johnny Hunt, Albert Mohler, David Platt, Jimmy Scroggins, and Ed Stetzer. The panel discussed issues pertaining to the gospel, the SBC and its future, the Great Commission Resurgence, and more.

In addition, Baptist21 would like our readers to be aware of the discussion that took place on the Tuesday night of the Southern Baptist Convention at the 9marks@9 event. During that event Danny Akin, Mark Dever, Albert Mohler, and David Platt discussed some very important topics. They addressed Platt’s sermon from the previous night, the importance of the GCR, next steps for the SBC and individual pastors, the health of the SBC, the importance of attending the national meeting (check the Mohler quote at about 11:30-12:30), the future of theological education, and more.
