Book Description
Evangelicals, argues Wells, have largely lost the truth that God also stands outside all human experience, that he still summons sinners to repentance and belief regardless of their self-image, and that he calls his church to stand fast in his truth against the blandishments of the modern world.

". . . This religious anthology will nourish the pastor?s heart, soul, and mind. It?s a treasure for devotional reflection as well as a support for the task at hand." -- James W. Crawford, pastor, Old South Church, Boston "Under the editorial . . . guidance of Professor Cox, whose sensitivity to parish needs in incomparable, The Ministers Manual has achieved a long-standing reputation for its wide variety of quality material for pulpit and worship use". -- Donald Macleod, Francis L. Patton, professor emeritus, Princeton Theological Seminary The Ministers Manual is the single most comprehensive resource for preaching and worship available, filled with completely new material for 1999.

In addition, The Ministers Manual will help you prepare sermons and prayers for such occasions as communion, funeral services, and Memorial Day. Along with all this, The Ministers Manual gives you additional features not found in other preaching manuals. It provides three valuable worship aids with every sermon, useful for expanding your Sunday service. You can also enrich your preaching by drawing from the more than one hundred thought-provoking quotations and questions on life and religion. Further, this expansive reference offers topics to ponder at small group discussions and resources for evangelism and world missions. And the seven indexes put all of this valuable information at your fingertips. The Ministers Manual is truly unequaled in

Book Description
This new book by best-selling author Rev. Dr. Marvin McMickle (now president of Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School) is a rich and provocative exploration of the Baptist distinctive of separation of church and state and its historic expression in the social justice traditions of the African American church. Featuring historical examples as well as personal experiences, Dr. McMickle argues for the vital role of the preacher, not only in prophetic preaching and teaching on social issues but also in serving the community and challenging the government, whether from within or without.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Ethics and Etiquette of the Pulpit, Pew, Parish, Press and Platform: A Manual of Manners for Ministers and Members A preacher must be a gentleman. In the degree he falls below that does he stop short of meeting popular demand and is unsuccessful. Society will not tolerate, in a minister, cant, slang, pet phrases, and vulgar habits. He must be a man of clean hands, literally, as well as of a pure heart. Un spotted linen and a clean heart complement each other. Speech must be seasoned with salt.
