My wife has on her bookshelf Singing for Dummies. I have to tell you that, according to those who know me, it hasn’t worked! Actually, I have to admit a certain antipathy towards ‘how to do it’ books. So I began to read this book with a certain amount of reluctance; can I cope with yet another book on preaching?
However, this book is different. It gathers together ten experienced preachers to tell us how they prepare their sermons. Each preacher explains their method in one chapter and then gives us a model sermon from their repertoire in the next. We can therefore, look over the shoulder as each prepares their sermon from start to finish, and also hear their heart approach to preaching.
