Publisher's Description

In recent years Steven J. Lawson has been in demand nationwide as a speaker at major conferences, particularly those for pastors. The Kind of Preaching God Blesses is a powerful must-read for every minister who desires to preach God's Word in a way that truly exalts the Lord and nourishes His people.  
In 1 Corinthians 2:1-9, the apostle Paul wrote about the keys to effective preaching. In this compact yet dynamic book, readers will learn about...

• the priority of biblical preaching--an urgent call to every minister
• the poverty of modern preaching--what is lacking in today's pulpits
• the preeminence of Christ in preaching--making Jesus the dominant theme
• the power of the Spirit in preaching--replacing self-confidence with God-dependence

This is a passionate appeal to Christ-centered preaching--the kind that God blesses, the kind that brings real revival in people's lives. Great for pastors, Bible teachers, and Christian students aspiring to a teaching ministry.

Endorsement  

"With great precision, like that of a skilled surgeon, Lawson cuts directly to the heart issue of preaching in this generation. With pinpoint accuracy, he gives the correct diagnosis to the pulpit ailment that plagues so many churches in this day. Lawson rightly concludes that there is certainly no shortage of preaching. Rather, the problem lies in the anemic substance and lack of power in the evangelical pulpit." - John MacArthur
