Baptist preacher Frederick Brotherton Meyer writes under the conviction that only expository preaching of the Bible “resists the wear and tear of time in a long pastorate with its steady and unceasing demand for sermons, week in, week out, which feed and nourish and inspire the flock.” Meyer defines and defends expository preaching, and examines how Jesus preached out of Scripture. This volume is a valuable resource for both the young and experienced preacher.

Frederick Brotherton Meyer (1847–1929) was a Baptist pastor and evangelist in England. He was educated at Brighton College, University of London, and Regent’s Park College. Meyer was well known for his friendship with Dwight L. Moody, and became involved with ministry work on both sides of the Atlantic.

Named best preacher of the twentieth-century by Preaching Magazine, James Stewart wrote books on preaching that “have inspired tens of thousands of preachers to strive for greater effectiveness in their proclamation of God’s Word.” Heralds of God is perhaps Stewart’s best known work, and stresses the role of the preacher as proclaimer of “the mighty acts of God,” not a propagator of ideals, opinions, or parties. Stewart presents a clear picture of the preacher’s world, theme, study, technique, and inner life.

James S. Stewart (1896–1990) was a minister of the Church of Scotland, and an instructor of New Testament language, literature, and theology at the University of Edinburgh. Preaching Magazine named Stewart the best preacher of the twentieth century, and he wrote prolifically on the art of preaching.
