Worthy of being read time and time again.” —Paul Washer (from the foreword)
“Preaching has fallen on hard times—partially because preachers often don’t do it well and partially because church members often don’t realize its value. In this succinct little book, Martin Rizley sets forth what gospel preaching is and why it is essential. He shows us why it should be preeminent in the preacher’s heart and in the church’s worship and then summarizes how it should be done: intelligently, faithfully, lovingly, diligently, confidently, and prayerfully. If both pulpit and pew would take Rizley seriously, the church would be much healthier than it is. This is a gem. Buy a dozen copies (or more!) and give them to your pastor, elders, and friends.” — Joel R. Beeke, president, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan
