"This helpful book is exactly as it claims to be - a basic introduction to most of the concepts, terms, forms, and resources essential for the beginning lay or professional pulpiteer. As a simple, concise, and practical foundation, it provides an excellent introductory volume, effectively orienting would-be biblical preachers." "A masterful, practical, biblical perspective on the essentials of preaching. This book is born out of the author's balanced ministry of classroom work and pulpit preaching. Beginning students will find here stepping stones toward the task of proclamation. Active pulpiteers will discover refreshment in the midst of weekly pressures of pulpit work. All of us have in this volume a new challenge to the most demanding task in the kingdom of God. I commend this volume without reservation." Learning a new art requires a knowledge of the fundamentals, and the art of preaching is no exception. In Essentials for Biblical Preaching veteran homiletician Al Fasol covers every aspect the aspiring preacher needs to know. It can be used effectively on either the graduate or undergraduate level. After surveying the history of preaching, Fasol offers practical guidelines, peppered with examples, for preparing and delivering effective sermons. Topics include collecting sermon ideas, interpreting the biblical text, organizing the sermon, using illustrations, making applications, varying sermon methods, and employing communication principles. About the Author Al Fasol is distinguished professor of preaching at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. He has taught at Southwestern since 1973. In 1961 Fasol pastored the Royalton First Baptist in Illinois and also served 18 months as interim pastor at Second Baptist Church in Little Rock, Arkansas.
