Seminary courses and clergy conferences on preaching<br >attract participants in larger numbers than ever. Millions of viewers<br >watch television preachers every week.<br > What is good preaching? is the question of both those who hear it<br >and those who do it. Hearers answer that question instinctively,<br >tuning in the preacher who meets their needs, whether in the pulpit<br >of the neighborhood church or on a broadcast. Preachers need to<br >answer more intentionally.<br > Time was that a good thick book on preaching would do it, or a<br >miscellaneous smattering of thin ones. The time now seems ripe for<br >a different kind of resource---a carefully conceived, tightly edited<br >series of books whose scope covers the homiletical spectrum and<br >whose individual volumes reveal the latest and best thinking about<br >each specialty within the field of preaching. The volumes in the<br >Abingdon Preacher s Library enable the preacher to understand<br >preaching in its historical setting; to examine its biblical and<br >theological underpinnings; to explore its spiritual, relational, and<br >liturgical dimensions; and to develop insights into its craftsmanship.<br > Designed primarily for use in the seminary classroom, this series<br >
