Book Description
Biographical Sermon Outlines for all Preachers offer an inexhaustible source of sermons to faithful preachers of God's Word. The Bible contains over 3,000 different male characters. There are also several female characters in both the Old and New Testaments. If we decide to preach only one sermon on each of these 3,000 men characters alone, (which can never be possible because of the several events in their lives) it will take us not less than 60 years to do this. So if you come into the ministry at 30 years of age, by the time you finish all the sermons on only the Bible men characters you will be over 90 years and will be enjoying your retirement somewhere if the Lord has not already called you home!...Preparing and preaching Biographical Sermons on the suggested men and women characters in this book can also go a long way to help us improve upon our preaching. This can help us to vary the Biographical Sermons we can prepare and preach on our own by giving us extra 140 Sermons.

Fascinating Stories of Forgotten Lives
Author: Charles R. Swindoll
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1418553743
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Join pastor and bestselling author Charles Swindoll as he explores the lives of 13 biblical hidden figures whose stories have remained in the shadows of history for long enough. Somehow life has taught us poorly. We're trained to think that the most significant people are star athletes, actors, and musicians--the ones we applaud, those whose autographs we seek, or those who have worldly fame. But Swindoll teaches us that most often, the people really worth noting are those who turn from a 'nobody' into a 'somebody' but never receive credit. Fascinating Stories of Forgotten Lives reminds us of a core truth: success in God's kingdom and in the church depends upon faithful people the public rarely knows. The Old Testament contains numerous fascinating stories of forgotten lives--unsung heroes whose actions, sacrifices, or battles failed to ascribe them worldly applause. These great lives, however, reveal significant people whom God honors in the pages of His Word and, therefore, deserve our serious attention and emulation. From the misfortunes of Esau to the bravery of Abigail, each of these unlikely heroes has four unique elements in common: A selfless sense of devotion A mission A love of harmony A contagious joy Join Swindoll in this eighth volume of the bestselling Great Lives from God's Word series as he examines little-remembered Bible characters and events, helping you discover biblical principles and practical applications for living so that you can be who you already are in God's eyes--a person of true significance.
