The Four Pages of the Sermon, Revised and Updated: A Guide to Biblical Preaching

I have never given a sermon in 20+ years of serving as a deacon. We are reading this as part of a continuing ed class taught by a local pastor. We have to write and present a sermon to complete the class, and our homework, in addition to reading 3 chapters/week, is to listen to sermons given in any service we attend to learn to spot the various elements. We just completed the first 9 chapters, and I feel like I have just been given the key for decoding the sermons I hear as well as clear instruction in how to write my first one that I will have to present in class! I don't know if I will ever have the courage to actually stand before a congregation and give a sermon, but I am a lot less intimidated by that idea than I was when I signed up for a class in homiletics!

Excellent sermon preparation methodology. However the book seemed to lack editing, as there were typos and inconsistent and confusing headings and grouping of topics. The first edition was much better organized.

A helpful resource for biblical sermon.

Great quality book! Very well taken care of and shipped in a timely manner.
