How do I make an outline? How do I pick a text? Should I do a topical, textual, or expository sermon and what's the difference? How should I stand? What kind of illustrations should I use?
If you've ever found yourself facing these questions, this book is for you. This is a coursebook on preparing and delivering sermons. In the book, Mr. Scambler covers all the bases from picking a text to dividing the text to finding sub-points to gleaning illustrations and everything in between. And then he goes into the actual delivery of the lesson.
Contained in this book are sample outlines, suggestions for other outlines, and review questions to help you develop your skills in delivering God's word.
If you are not a preacher, reading this book will give you new-found respect for those who take the time to preach from God's inspired word.
