How To Write A Compelling Introduction - Nick Cady
The first few moments of your sermon might be more important than anything else that comes after them, because some of your hearers will decide if you are worth listening to or not, depending on how you begin your time. Nick Cady speaks with friend and colleague Mike Neglia about the importance of the opening moments of a sermon.
Nick Cady is the lead pastor of White Fields Community Church in Longmont, Colorado.
Prior to moving to Longmont in 2012, Nick spent 10 years as a missionary, pastor and church planter in Hungary working with Calvary Chapel. He holds a Bachelors degree in Theology from the University of Gloucestershire in England and recently completed his Masters degree in Integrative Theology from London School of Theology.
Nick can be heard on the radio every weekday from 2:30-3:00 PM Mountain Time all along Colorado’s Front Range on GraceFM: 89.7 from Cheyenne to Castle Rock, and 101.7 in Colorado Springs, as well as online at gracefm.com
He also hosts the Calvary Live call-in show on GraceFM every Friday from 4:00-5:00 PM MST, which is syndicated on HopeFM in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland and on TruthFM in Tennessee and North Carolina.
Nick is on the steering committee of the Expositors Collective, a growing network of pastors, leaders, and laypeople which exists to equip, encourage, and mentor the next generation of Christ-centered preachers by hosting training seminars and providing resources, including a weekly podcast.
He also serves with Calvary Global Network as a Local Connector and the leader of the Training team, which is developing a program to assess, train, and deploy new church planters and missionaries.
