An important intention of preaching ministry is to connect the written Word of God in the Bible with the present congregational context so that the present congregation may listen to the proclaimed Word of God and to follow the will of God as revealed in the Bible. In order to accomplish this divine purpose in preaching, preacher need to expect the applicable dimension of the Biblical text at the first interpretative step. In order to apply the Word of God to the audiences􀁳lives, preacher need to interpret exactly both the Biblical text and audiences􀁳multidimensional contexts. Audiences who listen to preaching do not exist alone, but are situated at the center of the spiritual warfare which happens in the family, church congregation, and the local society. In this spiritual warfare, preaching audiences need to seek their perspective change, character change, and action change. Therefore preachers who seek the relevant preaching ministry should consider the multidimensional congregational lives and the variety of change by proclaimed message, and need to deliver the relevant preaching message with the relevant application.
