The Sermons of Dick Iverson
This is the podcast that broadcasts the sermon series preached by Rev. Dick Iverson at Bible Temple in Portland, Oregon. In the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, those sermons were distributed around the world in the form of cassette tapes. They made a very significant contribution to church plants and pastors and served as an equipping resource for many. Roxy Iverson has retained digital copies of these sermon series, making it possible to broadcast them in the form of podcast episodes. Each week the next in a current series of sermons will be made available to podcast listeners.
