Within the pages of this book Dr. Tull explores the theology and practice of preaching. He insists that preaching is a craft to be honed, one that grasps the essence of the biblical message, the nuances of day-to-day life, and the skills required to connect the two. He shares with the reader his own "keys for vital preaching" and concludes by offering sermons that illustrate how these keys can be put to good use. Preachers in search of a fresh look at the art of preaching will find here keen insights and valuable practical steps for the awesome task of proclaiming God's word.
