The Art & Craft of Biblical Preaching<\/a> is a massive textbook on preaching with numerous preacher\/authors contributing their own short chapters.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/p>\n

The chapter by Dallas Willard alone is worth the price of the book.<\/p>\n

What was lacking, however, is that today\u2019s greatest preachers were completely missing from the book. As well as some of the most powerful lessons\/secrets to effective preaching.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the back cover write up from the book.<\/p>\n

\u201cA Comprehensive Resource for Today\u2019s Communicators This extensive encyclopedia is the most complete and practical work ever published on the art and craft of biblical preaching. The 11 major sections contain almost 200 articles, which cover every possible preaching topic, including changing lives, sermon structure, \u201cthe big idea,\u201d introductions, outlining, transitions, conclusions, passionate delivery, application, leveraging illustrations, telling stories, preaching narrative texts, topical preaching, expository preaching, evangelistic preaching, preaching to postmoderns, using humor, speaking with authority, and many others. Entries are characterized by intensely practical and vivid writing designed to help preachers deepen their understanding and sharpen their communication skills. The contributors include a virtual Who\u2019s Who of preaching from a cross section of denominations and traditions, such as John Ortberg, Rick Warren, Warren Wiersbe, Alice Mathews, John Piper, Andy Stanley, and many others. Haddon Robinson and Craig Brian Larson\u2015two of today\u2019s most respected voices in preaching\u2015provide editorial oversight.\u201d<\/p>\n
