"This is one of the best books on preaching that I have read. Reprinted for a new generation, this first-rate volume of essays on the theology and practice of preaching is as important today as it was when it was compiled more than 25 years ago. This book was conceived with the conviction that preachers cannot neglect the rigorous study that preaching demands, nor the heart-piercing application that the gospel invites, nor the personal piety that God requires. Written by pastors, professors, and biblical counselors - all of whom are experienced preachers - these essays will both instruct and encourage those who are called to preach and to do so faithfully and dynamically. I pray that all preachers, as well as those aspiring to preach, will read and devour The Preacher and Preaching."

The Preacher and Preaching is an excellent work! Filled with a host of exceptional writers covering a variety of helpful topics, I can honestly say that this work is perhaps the best I have ever read on this subject. If you had to pick only one volume of this nature to purchase — make this your first choice!
