A century-old call to restore power and clarity to preaching.
In a thoughtful examination of the preacher’s role, this edition of The Message and the Man asks how sermons can still move hearts and change lives in a changing world.
Drawing on the Hartley Lecture tradition, the text outlines the duties, challenges, and responsibilities of the modern preacher. It argues for a preaching that is both faithful to core truths and relevant to today’s audience, with a focus on how message, form, and delivery must align to offer real spiritual help.
Readers will find practical guidance on speaking with conviction, balancing warning with comfort, and using the art of persuasion to invite change without losing hope. The work remains rooted in enduring beliefs while recognizing the need for fresh methods in a shifting cultural landscape.
- Grounds the preacher in the essentials of personal certainty, integrity, and effective presentation
- Discusses the note of accusation, pity, idealism, edification, and cheer as core message tones
- Explores how to present difficult truths clearly without alienating listeners
- Offers a framework for delivering sermons that guide, challenge, and encourage
Ideal for ministers, students of homiletics, and readers interested in the craft and purpose of preaching.
