FORMATPaperback CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description

The purpose of our lives is to know the God of the universe who made us and loves us. It is this purpose that biblical preaching meets through explaining God's word. Biblical preaching centres around proclaiming God's Word and preachers are to be mouthpieces for God as we encounter the living Christ through Scripture. Jonathan Lamb illustrates the power of God's Word by focusing our attention on the heart, task and purpose of preaching by leading us through Nehemiah 8:1-12. Reworked to benefit from the authors' years of experience working alongside indigenous preaching movements around the world, this book includes excellent resources for group studies, preaching preparation and running a preachers' group.

Review

Jonathan has been a pioneer in training expository preaching movements in many countries around the world and we are delighted that he is now sharing his experience with us. Through Nehemiah and Ezra's journey, Jonathan shows us the essential elements of biblical preaching. I was very encouraged to see that he has included 'praying the Word' as an important part of preparation. Igor Amstegui Associate Director, Langham Preaching, Latin America This is a refreshing, clear, helpful and accessible book which is the fruit of many years of faithful preaching and patient training of preachers. I particularly enjoyed the final section on the two-way dynamic with those who hear, and are shaped by, faithful expository preaching. Christopher Ash Director, Proclamation Trust Jonathan's warm and inspiring summary of the important underlying dynamics of preaching will remind you - as it did me - of what really matters in preaching. Richly biblical, clearly written, owing from a life of pulpit ministry and ministry to others who preach, this volume deserves to be read. I hope that many - preachers and listeners to preaching alike - will take its insights to heart. When they do so, preaching will accomplish more of what God designed it to do. Greg Scharf Professor of Pastoral Theology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School In our Western culture that no longer believes in truth in any absolute sense, the role of preaching is more important than ever. As Christ works to transform the world, it is imperative that the faithful (both preachers and the laity) regain a deep confidence in the power of God's Word and Spirit. Lamb reminds us of the power of God's Word to transform lives and the culture around us. He writes from his tremendous wealth of experience in pulpit ministry and training. I couldn't recommend this book more highly. Rebecca Manley Pippert Author, Evangelist & Speaker When I heard that Jonathan Lamb had written a book on preaching, I thought, 'Who else would be in a better position to do so with universal appeal?' Lamb has not only preached most of his life, but he has also observed and taught preaching on all the continents on this planet. Reading this book, I sense that here now is the distillation of his experience, observation and teaching. Do not be deceived by this book's simplicity of language. Take its instructions to heart, and you will soon be a person sent from God to your hearers. Conrad Mbewe Pastor, Kabwata Baptist Church, Lusaka, Zambia At last, a book on preaching for both preachers and listeners. If you're a preacher, this book will show you how to preach without resorting to gimmicks and instead rely on the power of God's Word and Spirit. If you're a listener (and all of us are), it will show you how to listen to God's glory and to your benefit. Here is a fitting manifesto not just for the Keswick Convention, but for every local church. Tim Chester The Porterbrook Network This biblical and practical book is very timely because preaching really does matter! New preachers will find it an essential guide to laying good foundations for a lifetime of preaching. 'Old hands' will benefit enormously from this refreshing exploration of the preaching ministry. Stephen Gaukroger Author & Bible Teacher Founder & Director, Clarion Trust International I like to highlight important and memorable points in a book. My copy of this book is full of highlights! I wish I could put this book, especially the foundational first three chapters, into the hands of every preacher. Preaching is simply too important to get wrong or do badly, and so this book is rightly uncompromising in its assertion: 'The only true form of preaching is biblical preaching.' Amen! Forceful, true convictions married with godly practical advice make this one of the best books available on preaching. Michael Raiter Director, Centre for Biblical Preaching, Melbourne, Australia
