— Why he’s one of the greats
Know, feel, do: one felt need, one big idea, one clear action.
Groeschel founded Life.Church in Edmond, Oklahoma, and created the YouVersion Bible App. Many of his series are given away free to other churches through Life.Church’s Open Network. His secret: he is the model topical preacher. He starts from a felt need, builds one repeatable big idea, and lands one clear action. Before writing anything, he decides what he wants people to know, feel, and do.
