He began with Moses…
Preaching the Old Testament today

“Contemporary people too can find their hearts burning as they hear God speak through the Old Testament texts. However, preaching from this part of the Christian Bible brings significant challenges and raises a number of issues, and hence can be neglected.”

This volume offers guidance for expository preaching from the Old Testament, and practical suggestions for how to understand the message of its diverse literature and to apply it today. The chapters cover narrative, plot and characters, along with the main Old Testament genres and two special topics: preaching from ‘difficult’ texts, and preaching Christ.

“The aim is to encourage use of all the Bible’s rich resources, in the power of the Holy Spirit, in preaching the good news of the kingdom of God worldwide.”
