From preaching sermons as a child in the backyard, to delivering the upcoming Presidents address for the 101st annual gathering of the prestigious Hampton University Ministers Conference, Dr. Dwight Riddick has become transparent in his book, Does Preaching Have a Future? As you open the pages of this book, you will find insightful, conversational thoughts around the future of preaching. He writes, This book is intended to ignite conversation about what preaching should look like going forward-if this discourse is not already burning in the soul. This veteran (seasoned) pastor and teacher of the gospel has relied completely upon Scripture in his broad range of topics when it comes to the future of preaching: *Preach the word, be instant in season, out of season is a tried and proven counsel for preachers stretching all generations. *Ezekiel was faced with the question, can these bones live? Preachers today are asked if their preaching can bring about positive transformation in the lives of hopeless people and hopeless cases during changing times. Dr. Riddick supports this conversational topic by reminding his fellow homileticians (preachers) that those called and anointed by God are uniquely qualified to explain the Scripture.

Where have all the prophets gone? And why do preachers seem to shy away from prophetic witness? Astute preacher Leonora Tisdale considers these vexing questions while providing guidance and encouragement to pastors who want to recommit themselves to the task of prophetic witness. With a keen sensitivity to pastoral contexts, Tisdale's work is full of helpful suggestions and examples to help pastors structure and preach prophetic sermons, considered by many to be one of the most difficult tasks pastors are called to undertake.

According to Warren Wiersbe, The Supremacy of God in Preaching "calls us back to a biblical standard for preaching, a standard exemplified by many of the pulpit giants of the past, especially Jonathan Edwards and Charles Spurgeon." This newly revised and expanded edition is an essential guide for preachers who want to stir the embers of revival. Piper has added valuable new material reflecting on his thirty-three years of preaching at Bethlehem Baptist Church, offering a glimpse of what a lifetime of putting God first has done for the faith of the hundreds of thousands who have heard him preach over the years.

Preaching remains a central feature of almost all Christian worship. There are thousands of men and women in the UK who preach on a regular basis, clergy of all denominations, Readers, Local Preachers, Lay Preachers, Chaplains etc. This book, edited and contributed to by some of the leading authors in this field, seeks to make a substantial and authoritative contribution to the teaching and learning of preaching. The contributors offer reflections on subjects such as Preaching in a Communications Culture, Preaching and the Bible, Preaching and Personality Types, the Life of the Preacher and Educating Future Preachers.
