In compact form Dr. Adams offers a wealth of advice and challenges preachers of the Word to reconsider preaching from a radically biblical perspective. Affirming that a strong sense of purpose can transform a preaching ministry, in each chapter he offers new directions for achieving this goal. Dr. Adams's objective is "to develop a textbook on preaching for pastors, seminary students, and other Christian speakers that, I hope, will make an impact in our day significant enough to change preaching substantially." Preaching with Purpose may be used by an individual or in a class. The class assignments at the conclusion of chapters are designed for teachers to use in formal situations, but individual readers also may wish to adapt them for their personal enrichment. This book is not a mere restatement of past ideas and practices in contemporary language. It takes a new turn. - Publisher.

J. Kent Edwards recalls a story that late pastor J. Vernon McGee told about seeing children in South Africa playing a game of marbles in the dust with real diamonds. The precious stones were being handled with no regard for their true worth. Edwards fears the same thing happens today when preachers offer Scriptural truth to listeners without being completely overwhelmed by its greatness themselves in the process. Deep Preaching is his call to "rethink" preaching. Edwards helps preachers learn to preach the word in ways that will powerfully change the lives of hearers. He contends that sermons "need not settle comfortably on the lives of the listeners like dust on a coffee table." He encourages preachers to join him in casting off the lines that moor their ministries to the status-quo and make every effort to steer their preaching out of the "comfortable shallows." He urges them to preach deep sermons rather than superficial ones, moving "beyond the yawn-inspiring to the awe-inspiring, from the trite to the transforming."
