Peter Stevenson has spread a banquet before us: the table is
groaning with rich food to nourish the novice preacher and sustain
the seasoned practitioner. He offers us meaty questions and tasty
tips, served up with multiple side servings of practical examples.
This book is a veritable feast for all preachers
*Kate Bruce*
This thoughtful yet practical guide to the art of preaching is a
brilliant resource both for those new to preaching and for
experienced preachers who are looking for ideas to reinvigorate how
they preach. It blends helpful theory with down-to-earth examples
in such a way that captures and communicates Peter Stevenson's own
passion for preaching. A must for every preacher's bookshelf.
*Paula Gooder*
Peter Stevenson is an experienced and creative preacher and teacher
of preaching. In this book he distils his wisdom in a wonderfully
accessible and practical way. The plentiful examples and friendly
style make this a gift for those at any stage of the preaching
life, and for those who try to help and encourage them in their
calling. I wholeheartedly commend it.
*Stephen I. Wright*
"A book that is reassuringly abreast of the latest homiletical
thought while managing to be thoroughly practical. A first class
introduction to the craft of preaching.”
*David Day*
