Heralds of God

This classic book on evangelical preaching, first published in 1946, has inspired generations of preachers to strive for greater effectiveness in their proclamation of God's Word from the pulpit. Heralds of God offers practical advice to pastors and lay preachers, tells what results to aim for, and what to avoid if preaching is to be effective. Its simplicity and persuasive argument have made it a recommended read for preachers for decades, serving to remind all pastors and lay preachers that the ultimate task of preaching is not to expound our own ideas, but rather to convey God's good news as revealed in Holy Scripture.
