Reynolds has produced a book that every preacher and prospective preacher should read. This is not a mere “how to” manual, but a thorough biblical and theological analysis of our current media-saturated culture. This work is at once an apologetical analysis of the human propensity to engage in idolatry, an historical investigation of the modern study of communication, and a call to understand the God-ordained centrality of preaching the Word (and the oral nature of that preaching) in Christian worship. Readers will be richly repaid for the investment in time given to this volume. In a day and age when the wordless image is raised to idolatrous levels, we need to be reminded of the importance of the preached Word of God. - Jeff Waddington - Westminster Bookstore Staff |
