The art of preaching is one of the most important acts of ministry. A sermon teaches. It challenges. It convicts.
The Handbook of Contemporary Preaching is exactly that—a handbook. It has been designed to be a permanent resource to be referred to time and time again. Many facets of sermon preparation and delivery are addressed here, including methods of preaching, preaching and other ministerial roles, theology of preaching, and creativity in preaching.
Perhaps the most encyclopedic text on preaching in any language, the finest counsel from many of the acknowledged grand masters of the contemporary pulpit. In this one volume, Michael Duduit has compiled the insight, methods, and experience of fifty celebrated teachers, including:
James W. Cox
David S. Dockery
Timothy George
Sidney Greidanus
Calvin Miller
R. Albert Mohler Jr.
With its expansive bibliography and accessible format, it will become not only a valuable part of your library, but an important tool in assisting you for years to come.
