Synopsis

If you want to stimulate your creative juices and avoid dull, cliche-filled preaching, then you'll love this collection of 150 imaginative ""sermon starters."" Each idea consists of a clever title that's sure to catch the interest of the person in the pew along with a purpose statement and a brief discussion of the topic (including appropriate scripture references). There are a variety of suggested approaches with striking imagery, providing you with plenty of seeds for developing interesting, thought-provoking messages. And with a convenient subject index included, Shaking Wolves Out Of Cherry Trees is certain to be a treasured addition to any pastor's library. But this volume isn't just for preachers -- it's also an excellent source of meditations for men's, women's, or youth groups as well as inspiring devotional reading.

Here's a sample of some of the inventive entries:
* Daring To Be A Lion's Breakfast!
* Is There A Lightning Bolt With Your Name On It?
* How Many Will Your Garbage Can Feed?
* We Have Met The Monster And It Is Us
* Will Your Bones Dance Again?
* Cain's And Einstein's Theory Of Relativity
