Overview

For many people, and not a few preachers, the Old Testament is enigmatic, an assembly of strange laws and obscure customs from ancient history that make both preaching and devotional use challenging. But the Old Testament comes alive in this collection of 31 sermons. Jonah's flight, Sarah's laughter, Jeremiah's groaning, and Solomon's slide into apostasy find their application in everyday experiences of joy and sorrow, doubt and faith. Best of all, the Gospel of Jesus Christ is at the heart of these messages. Pastors in search of new handles on the Gospel and lay people who hunger to hear the Word of God address them in a fresh and vital way will be blessed by this book. Masterful. His use of questions... to engage the hearer is wonderful. And he keeps things Christologically oriented... (it) made me look forward to working on my homily for this Sunday! Fr. Gregory Hogg Grand Valley State University - Dorr, Michigan Deeply devotional...and remarkably artistic. What he has done is make the oral visual. I suggested to my wife that we use them for our daily devotion. Dr. Francis Rossow Concordia Seminary - St. Louis, Missouri The illustrations are... fitting, compelling... the preacher's heart comes thru very clearly and often ... the messages have good Gospel content and focus. Rev. Dr. David S. Belasic Retired and Interim Pastor - Cheektowaga, NY
