Mastering Contemporary Preaching (Mastering Ministry Series)
The co-publishers have introduced this volume as the first in a twelvevolume series called Mastering Minishy. It is an excellent overture, and augurs well for the works to follow. The editors have held extensive interviews with three of the country's preeminent preachers: Bill Hybels, pastor of Willow Creek Community Church outside Chicago, Stuart Briscoe of Elmbrook Church in Waukesha, Wisconsin, and Haddon Robinson, president of Denver Seminary. The latter sets the context for the book's theme: "Some people preach for an hour and it seems like twenty minutes, and some preach for twenty minutes and it seems like an hour. I wonder what the difference is? I think I've spent my life trying to answer that question." --FromIndependent Publisher
