Biblical preaching for today's world,

by Lloyd Merle Perry

" Biblical preaching has not outgrown its usefulness. The methods may vary, but the message remains the same. God's challenge and call to the preacher still come through loud and 'Preach the Word.'" Lloyd M. Perry's Biblical Preaching for Today's World has been helping pastors and speakers preach the Word since 1973. Although the principles Perry originally established are timeless, the needs and concerns of audiences are always changing. To help pastors preach more effectively to today's congregations, Perry has updated his original manuscript. He offers pastors help in understanding and adjusting to the effects television has had on an audience's listening skills. Historical references throughout each chapter will also help preachers learn from yesterday's teachers and styles. Biblical Preaching for Today's World continues to offer sound, time-tested principles for preaching, regardless of the preacher's style. Filled with helpful suggestions, annotated outlines, and solid documentation, it is invaluable reading for all who aspire to preach the Word.

[Kerry Bond · Rating 4 out of 5]

As an APOSTLE he is to challenge the will.
As a PROPHET he is to probe the conscience.
As an EVANGELIST he is to woo the heart.
As a PASTOR he is to care for the soul.
As a TEACHER he is to inform the mind. (page 15)

This is just one of the scores of quotes that stand out in this fine book on preaching. Perry puts together a book on preaching that sticks to the basics. He illustrates his points well, but does not belabor them. A strong point in this book is the stress on delivery of the sermon.
