Listen to an episode of Reformed Media Review entitled Preaching in Our Time. (Reformed Forum)

Product Description: This magisterial volume is the seventh and last of Hughes Oliphant Old's history of preaching. Here Old takes up the story with the sixties and the Second Vatican Council and follows it all the way through to the house churches of China and the preaching of the Archbishop of Uganda, known as the "Billy Graham of Africa." Along the way he looks at the engaging preaching found in Latin America, the rise of the modern megachurch, the role of Joan Alexandru's preaching in bringing down the house of Ceausescu, and other historically significant moments in preaching.

Full of surprising details and inspiring stories of ministry, this book is a fitting work to round out Old's monumental, comprehensive series written by a preacher for preachers on the history of preaching in the Christian church.
