Biblical preaching is nearing extermination in our day. There is "sharing," "suggesting," plenty of storytelling, and lots of preaching to "felt needs." But the authoritative, expositional opening of the Word of God is more rare to find all the time. This book is a plea for preachers to "preach the Word." In the Old Testament God decried the fact that his people were perishing for lack of knowledge about himself. Too often, those who have been called to feed Christ''s sheep do little more than pet them instead of feeding them the Word of God. This book is for pastors and people alike. It will encourage pastors to maintain their calling. It will guide congregations in holding their pastors to this biblical standard. - Back cover.
