Meet The Pastor
Pastor-Teacher David E. Thompson
Pastor Thompson may be classified as a true systematic Bible expositor and communicator of God's Word. He carefully expounds books of the Bible in a way that is contextually, exegetically, grammatically, historically, and theologically accurate to the text and relevant to the time.
He is thematic in that he seeks to expound the main theme or proposition of a text as it is developed by the context. His homiletical style of preaching comes from being trained as an expositor under the tutelage of those who were trained by Dr. Haddon Robinson.
Pastor Thompson is a full manuscript preacher. He was drawn to this style of exposition while visiting his brother in Dallas, Texas as they sat under the manuscript preaching ministry of Dr. S. Lewis Johnson. He follows the historical pattern of other full manuscript preachers such as Phillip Brooks and Jonathan Edwards. When you attend a service at Texas Corners Bible Church you are given a complete manuscript of the message before he preaches it.
He uses humor and illustrations as a means of helping people accurately understand a text. He does not ramble and share stories for no reason. Pastor Thompson is very intense and focused in his communication of God's word and a typical exposition lasts 35-40 minutes.
