Prince of Preachers: The Apostle Paul

by Paul Gericke

Overview

In both of the Apostle Paul's letters to Timothy, he lists his callings as a preacher, apostle, and teacher of the Gentiles. He lists preacher first, which indicates that this gift was of critical importance during his thirty-five years of ministry throughout the Roman world. The book of Acts and his letters in the New Testament provide us with first-hand information regarding his service for the Lord.

In Prince of Preachers, author Paul Gericke studies the Bible in order to provide the reader with knowledge of Paul's exemplary life, his proclamation of God's Word to the lost people of the world, and his instructions on preaching. The work explores the preaching of the Apostle Paul and his writings to determine the message, principles, and his methods of preaching. This text is an important resource for those who preach, teach, and proclaim the word of God.
