It is rare to discover a collection of sermons that stimulate the mind and touch the heart in the deepest places, but that is what Stephen Clyborne has provided for us in this volume. These sermons bring together careful study of biblical texts with the real-life issues that ordinary people face. To those who say that traditional preaching is dead, I heartily commend this volume of sermons to you. Through them, you will be challenged and stirred, and perhaps even renewed. This gifted preacher has blessed us with a choice gift! - Loyd Melton, Professor of New Testament, Erskine Theological Seminary Stephen Clyborne is a minister who knows the Bible superbly and is gifted in putting its narrative forward in ways that are completely understandable. But beyond that, his sense of humor and his understanding of the human condition enable Stephen to help and to bless even us who plow through the rough acres in our lives. Read his sermons and be uplifted and encouraged. - Ron Grizzle, Retired Pastor; Retired Director, Center for Teaching Churches, McAfee School of Theology I have had the honor and privilege of working on staff with Stephen Clyborne in a local church for over twenty years, and I have heard each of these sermons when they were delivered in the worship service. You may be wondering: Why read a book of sermons? How will that help me? Living the Christian life has its ups and downs. We all struggle to find the right balance in life-to live between the tension of belief and action, fear and faith. Stephen's vast experience of forty years in ministry has given him a unique insight into how to find that balance and to acknowledge that even when life is hard, God is faithful (from one of my favorite sermons). I believe you will find this book to be helpful, encouraging, and inspiring. - Janice Hinnant, Minister of Music, Earle Street Baptist Church The sermons of Stephen Clyborne, our pastor, have consistently provided spiritual nourishment and given direction for our journeys of faith. His sermons, delivered in a conversational voice with deep understanding of the gospel, provide perspective to our past and encouragement for the future. Commitment to Christ is the overriding emphasis, as he implores his listeners to give as much of yourself as you know how to as much of Jesus as you can understand. A favorite hymn of the Clyborne family contains this directive: Keep telling the story, be faithful and true, let others see Jesus in you, and these actions and attributes of the committed Christian are evident in Stephen Clyborne's walk of faith and ministry. Thanks be to God! - Don Kirkland, Editor Emeritus, The Baptist Courier If you're looking for a blessing, reading through Stephen Clyborne's No Place Like Home should lift your spirits. Too often, the thought of hearing or reading sermons conjures up descriptors such as dry as dust, irrelevant, judgmental, too focused on pie-in-the-sky, too stilted in speech, and too taxing. But that's not what one encounters through Stephen's preaching. Instead, we experience authenticity and transparency. As both pastor and preacher, Stephen reflects an intimate walk with the One who fills his heart with love, kindness, mercy, joy, and grace. Hence, we can likewise say that from Stephen's fullness of the character of the Lord, we who are privileged to hear his sermons week by week also receive grace upon grace. - David Newton, Retired Missionary to Thailand; Chaplain of Rolling Green Village
