An Invaluable Tool for Busy Pastors, this book is designed to heel preachers produce sermons on a variety of texts (most drawn from the Common Lectionary), sermons that are theologically sound and exegetically true. The 24 guidelines offer suggestions for sermons on Easter Sunday and seven worship days following including Ascension Day and Pentecost Sunday. Each cycle of eight is outlined three times, once with texts drawn from the Synoptic Gospels, once with texts from the Old Testament and Paul's letters and once with texts from the writings of John and Peter.
