What should be the focus of preaching in Christian worship?

Answered in 1 source

Preaching in Christian worship should focus on the clear and humble proclamation of the gospel.

In worship, the primary focus of preaching should be the faithful declaration of the gospel, as observed in 1 Corinthians 1:17 and the example set by Paul. Preaching should not rely on human wisdom, eloquence, or entertainment but should emphasize the simplicity and clarity of God’s sovereign grace in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is through the humble preaching of the Word that believers are edified, comforted, and encouraged, helping to build a community focused on glorifying God through the salvation that is available in Christ alone. This contrasts sharply with the prevalent entertainment-driven messages found in many modern gatherings.
