He Is Not Silent: Preaching in a Postmodern World
"Where are the Spurgeons of this generation?"  So R. Albert  Mohler concludes his call for expositional preaching in today's pulpits.  Thank  God that the man occupying the position of the president of the Southern Baptist  Theological Seminary would write such a book as this!  Deeply theological,  concerned and confident, this is a clearly written book with an important message  on THE crucial topic for churches and preachers today.-Mark Dever, Senior  Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DC and founder of 9MarksThis  book shows a side of Dr. Mohler that many don't see. In addition to his roles as  a seminary president, discerning observer of culture, and evangelical spokesman,  Dr. Mohler excels as a preacher, passionate about God's Word and confident in its  power to save.He Is Not Silent: Preaching in a Postmodern Worldinstructs  us in, and urges upon us, a view of preaching that is theologically profound, culturally  aware, pastorally sensitive, and spiritually edifying. Evangelical pastors desperately  need the clear, confident, and urgent plea that issues from these pages.-CJ  Mahaney, President, Sovereign Grace MinistriesI preach because nothing  else can satisfy the urgency and passion that God has ignited in my heart for His  truth and His people. The same should be true for you. If you can go sell cars or  shuffle stocks instead of being a pastor and preacher of God's Word, then go do  that. For the rest of us, I'm grateful for my friend and mentor, Al Mohler who dares  us to think beyond seminary syllabuses and safe homiletics. Careful-this book can  change your ministry.-James MacDonald, Senior Pastor, Harvest Bible Chapel,  Bible Teacher, Walk in the WordAlbert Mohler is one of North America's  most trenchant, incisive analysts of Christianity and culture. In this passionate  book, he makes a persuasive case for the kind of preaching that our culture needs:  the faithful exposition of Holy Scripture, in which the Triune God speaks his own  life-giving gospel for the salvation of sinners and the sanctification of his people.-Philip  Graham Ryken, Senior Minister, Tenth Presbyterian Church, Bible Teacher, Every Last  WordAs President of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Dr. Al Mohler  trains thousands of pastors and ministers to proclaim the Word of God with integrity  and clarity. The book you hold is the result of a lifetime of challenging and developing  effective Biblical preachers. I predict it will become a classic for the preparation  and delivery of sermons that exalt Christ and strengthen God's church for generations  to come.-Dr. Jack Graham, Pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church, Plano, Texas"According  to the Bible, exposition is preaching. And preaching is exposition."  Dr. Al  Mohler's statement pretty well sums up this powerful volume on the theology of preaching.  I wish every young man called to preach could be given a copy of this excellent  volume on the necessity of expository preaching. It can transform any pastor's preaching  ministry. Wouldn't hurt preachers of any age to read this one!-Jerry Vines,  Pastor Emeritus, First Baptist Church, Jacksonville, FL and President of Jerry Vines  Ministries, Inc.Mohler at his best.  Chapter 7 alone is worth the  price of the book!-Alistair Begg, senior minister, Parkside Church, Cleveland,  OH
