The podcast can be accessed through Akin’s website, danielakin.com; Southeastern’s website, sebts.edu; or by searching for his name at the iTunes Music Store podcast directory. Users can subscribe to the podcast so that it can be updated automatically each time a new sermon is added online.
“My prayer is that God will use this podcast as a way to reach people all over the world with His Word, as well as teach the value and importance of expository preaching,” said Akin, president since 2003 of Southeastern, located in Wake Forest, N.C.
Akin is the author of commentaries on the Epistles of John and the Song of Solomon and of several books, including “Discovering the Biblical Jesus: Evidence From An Empty Tomb” and “God on Sex.”
David Nelson, Southeastern’s senior vice president of academic administration, noted that amid thousands of podcasts available and scores of new ones appearing daily, “Dr. Akin is rare in that he is a scholar-teacher whose preaching speaks to the heart and the mind, both instructing and inspiring.”
In addition to Akin’s podcast, Southeastern regularly podcasts its thrice-weekly chapel services during the fall and spring semesters, featuring some of the world’s most renowned preachers and scholars. The chapel podcast can be accessed through the Southeastern website, sebts.edu, or by searching for Southeastern Seminary at the iTunes Music Store podcast directory.
