2. Why was preaching (proclaiming) so important to Jesus?

Preaching is important because it is one way of sharing the God's message. Sharing a testimony is one way of proclaiming; Jesus does not need us to defend him, we see this in John Chapter 8:12-18,13 The Pharisees therefore said to Him, “You bear witness of Yourself; Your witness is not [a]true.”14 Jesus answered and said to them, “Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going. 15 You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one. 16 And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me. 17 It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true. 18 I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me."

Although Jesus does not need us to defend Him. When we proclaim His name or share his message our experience is more relatable to others. As humans, we mostly live by sight and not by faith. I remember a few sermons ago, you preached about the transformative power of hearing a testimony from someone who has experienced a change of heart after accepting, encountering or experiencing a life changing experience with Christ, so preaching to others through our experiences with Christ is helpful.

Yes testimonies are so powerful. Even if we don't much Bible you at least know your story, so why not share it.
