Some very good and useful advice here.

MacArthur has compiled a great selection of essays, which were originally delivered at various Shepherd's Conferences through the years. While the writings were encouraging and in-line with the Word of God, there was nothing particularly revolutionary about the book as a whole. I gave it three stars, as it won't go down as a landmark book on preaching; however, it will encourage the expository pastor in his task to faithfully preach and teach the inerrant Word of God!
