Rating: Summary: Best Book on Preaching Ever Written Review: I've written a dozen books and thousands of sermons. Each was based on the method I learned from Haddon Robinson that's taught in this book. If you want to learn a method of thinking, pulling together a biblical passage, and organizing it into a powerful message this book is a must read. It is, in my opinion, the best book on preaching ever written. Bill Perkins

Rating: Summary: Learn From One of the Great Expositors of our Time Review: In "Biblical Preaching," master preacher, Haddon Robinson, takes his readers through ten stages in the development of expository messages. These stages include: selecting and studying the passage, discovering and analyzing the exegetical idea, formulating the homiletical idea, determining the sermon's purpose, deciding how to accomplish this purpose, outlining the message, filling in the sermon outline, and preparing the introduction and conclusion. Robinson's ten-stage process is filled with valuable information and pithy insights. "Biblical Preaching" is a concise but fairly comprehensive guide to preparing an effective message from start to finish. The book provides an opportunity to learn from one of the great expositors of our time. For a more thorough study of the art and science of expository preaching I recommend "Power in the Pulpit" by Jerry Vines. In my mind, these are the two best expository preaching books I've had the pleasure of reading.

Rating: Summary: Blueprint to expository sermon creation Review: Should hermeneutics and exposition deal strictly with our study patterns, or should it pervade our teaching and preaching as well? Examples of good study habits derailed by poor methods of conveyance to the masses litter the history of theology. Correctly conveying the messages in Scripture is tantamount for any servant of God. This not only pertains to preachers, but to every Christian as we are all teachers in some form or fashion. Biblical Preaching takes the process of hermeneutics through Scriptural exegesis to successful conveyance of God's Word in the pulpit or classroom environment.
Dr. Haddon W. Robinson's background is an illustrious list of evangelical authorship, teaching and leadership.
Dr. Haddon first appeals to the passionate side of pastors by convincing them of the dire need for expository preaching. Then he lays out a 10 step plan for creating a flexible and applicable Biblically based sermon. In the last 2 chapters, he gives tips on increasing credibility and attention while speaking.
Biblical Preaching is a blessing for all to enjoy and has a wealth of information regarding the key to conveying God's Word- expositional preaching. It is not surprising that this is used by over 120 seminaries world-wide.
Rating: Summary: A book that pierces the heart. Review: There are few joys as great as a fire in your bones to build up Christ's church through preaching. And there are few frustrations as great as leaving the pulpit with the impression that you have had little, if any, impact. Robinson's book is an invaluable tool to improve your preaching - the "living interaction involving God, the preacher, and the congregation." He begins by making the case for expository preaching, explaining that the reason "most modern preaching evokes little more than a wide yawn" is because God is not in it. Robinson tells his readers the importance of preaching a single biblical idea and then gives instructions on how to effectively deliver a message from God to your audience; he includes how different logical sermon structures may communicate certain ideas more effectively - how to bring your sermon outline to life - what makes a good introduction and conclusion - "how to preach so people will listen" etc. His book takes hold of the heart by establishing a conviction for God-honoring study and sermon development and never lets it go until the end of his instruction. My highest recommendation.
Rating: Summary: Excellent book for beginning preachers Review: This is an excellent book for any man who is interested in preaching the word of God accurately to the church. The simple structure that Robinson brings to the reader is easy to understand and a wonderful method of sermon preparation and communication.
