Synopsis
Today many Christians have lost confidence in preaching and have replaced it with other things such as dialogue, films, dancing, and dramatic presentations. "Do we need preaching today?" is a question often asked in many churches. John Cheeseman takes up this question and argues that the church must maintain the priority of preaching for both biblical and theological reasons. He then proceeds to offer helpful instruction and advice on the practical matters of preparing and delivering sermons, before finally turning his attention to the vitally important subject of the character of the preacher. This booklet is an excellent primer for all young men who believe that God may be calling them to become preachers of his Word.

About the Author
John Cheeseman went to school at Epsom College in Surrey and was converted to the Christian faith at the age of 17 during a Scripture Union houseparty, never having previously attended church or Sunday School. He received his call to the ministry at Oxford University, where he studied Classics.
After a gap year during which he taught English at a North London Comprehensive school, he moved on to Trinity Theological College Bristol, where he studied under Jim Packer and Alec Motyer. But he always says that the best thing he gained from theological college was his wife Joy who was training to be a church pastoral worker.
In 1976 he became assistant minister to Kenneth Prior at Sevenoaks Parish Church and served subsequently at St. John's, Egham, where he was also a chaplain at Royal Holloway College, University of London. He then became Vicar of Christ Church, Leyton in East London (1982-90) and thereafter Vicar of St. James, Westgate-on-Sea in Kent (1990-2001). More recently he has been Vicar of Holy Trinity, Eastbourne (2001-2010), a large town-centre church with a strategic ministry to tourists and holiday makers. He now concentrates on an itinerant ministry of Bible teaching, and serves as vice-chairman of Church Society and Church Society Trust.
