In this episode of Help Me Teach the Bible, I talk with Robert Smith Jr., professor of preaching at Beeson Divinity School. We discuss Psalm 42–43 and what it has to teach about moving from sorrow to joy, from mourning to morning. Smith was previously associate professor of Christian preaching at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. Among other writing projects, he is the author of Doctrine That Dances: Bringing Doctrinal Preaching and Teaching to Life, which was named Preaching magazine’s 2008 Preaching Book of the Year and Preaching.com’s 2009 Preaching Book of the Year.
