This is a lightweight book about lightweight preaching. The author’s aim is to stimulate preachers into making their sermons more interesting and effective. In the Introduction he bemoans the prevalence of boring sermons and then claims that his book is the one he has been seeking for 25 years but has not found. So he has written it.
The following chapters deal successively, in an entertaining way, with the basic matters of sermon preparation and delivery.
