A bright new resource for the working preacher, Best Advice for Preaching garners the preaching wisdom of America’s most outstanding preachers and homileticians. A collaborative effort of twenty-seven seasoned preachers, men and women from a variety of religious traditions and ethnic backgrounds, this indispensable guidebook is designed to improve all phases of the practice of preaching. The authors freely share their experiences and wisdom on a host of topics such as the initial call to preach, discipline, study patterns, conveying a message, using the lectionary, coordinating with the church year and other calendars, preaching sermon series, illustrating sermons, keeping notes and files, how to organize material, polishing the sermon, delivery, coordinating worship, feedback, and assembling a good preacher’s library.
