The Power of Integrity in Preaching
Call to Pastors by
Dean Shriver
Dean Shriver reminds us again of the need for personal integrity in preachers and their preaching. He argues that integrity is everything, and it must not be faked.

The Secret to a Great Preaching Ministry
Preaching by
Steven Elzinger
The Secret to a great Preaching Ministry states that every Sunday morning, millions of believers gather around a pulpit to hear God’s message for their lives. The sermon might inspire, convict, or challenge the listeners in their spiritual quest. But within a few days, the message is forgotten, while the struggles continue. Many books address this problem by focusing on the speaker’s role: tips and tricks for communicating more effectively. But the other side of the equation is often neglected. The secret to a great preaching ministry, Steven Elzinga reveals, lies in preparing the hearts of the listeners.
Preaching and Preachers
Practical Homiletics by
D.Martin Lloyd-Jones
For over 30 years, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones ministered at Westminster Chapel in London. Today, he is widely considered one of the greatest preachers of the 20th century. Based on a series of lectures originally given by Lloyd-Jones to the students of Westminster Theological Seminary in the spring of 1969, this collection of essays on the essence of powerful preaching has become a modern classic. Lloyd-Jones defends the primacy of preaching, showing that there is no substitute, and he challenges preachers to take their calling seriously: “The most urgent need in the Christian Church today is true preaching.
Preaching the Cross
Various Preachers by
Dever, Duncan
Preaching the Cross states that Proclaiming the gospel is without a doubt the most important task of pastoral ministry, yet often other, seemingly more urgent activities obscure it.

It is a call to expository, gospel-centered preaching as the center of pastoral ministry. This volume showcases an unprecedented combination of pastors representing a variety of evangelical traditions.
Selected Sermons of George Whitefield
Homiletics by
George Whitefield
This book is a compilation of sermons by probably the most famous religious figure of the eighteenth century who had influenced America’s founding fathers. George Whitefield was capable of commanding thousands of people in America and Europe through his powerful oratory. Newspapers called him “marvel of the age,” and his audience called him the “Grand Itinerant.”
As a schoolboy, Whitefield took an interest in theater and often practiced for performances. This theatrical background helped him portrayed the biblical characters with life that enthralled his audience during his sermons. That’s why wherever he preached, people crowded and hung on every word he said. His methods were unconventional, that many churches in London didn’t welcome him to preach in their pulpits. Instead, he tried extemporaneous preaching outdoors, which drove tens of thousands of people to the point that a church cannot hold its volume.
