The Message & The Messenger

“The Message and the Messenger” may be the first

and last book you will need on basic sermon preparation.

Written from a scholarly but pastoral perspective, Dr. Tony V.

Lewis, President of Christian Bible Institute and Seminary,

provides a great concise guide in preparing not only the sermon,

but the preacher, for a lifetime of ministerial service from the

pulpit. In the opening pages of the book, Dr. Lewis writes, “The

call to ministry and to preaching is also a call to preparation and

a call to study.” This book gives the reader spiritual, academic,

and practical ways in which they can prepare themselves for a

lifetime of preaching."
