Connect: Proclaiming the timeless truths of Christ in an ever-changing world

"Dr. Dwight Perry answers the question every modern-day biblical communicator must resolve: 'How do I effectively connect the life-changing truth of the gospel with a generation that is skeptical and full of doubt?' With analysis, he provides clear principles and standards that will benefit every preacher. If you desire to connect with and change the hearts of this culture, this book will educate, enlighten and motivate you!" - Pastor John Jenkins, First Baptist Church of Glenarden, Landover, MD"Dr. Dwight Perry's Connect draws upon his extensive experience as a pastor, scholar, professor and denominational leader to speak to emerging church leaders caught up in postmodern drift. This seminal work is a critically important rationale for absolute truth. Every young church leader--many of whom have been influenced by forces they do not acknowledge--needs to wrestle with this book." Glen Kehrein, Executive Director, Circle Urban Ministry
