Book Description

July 9, 2007 Minister's Manual (Book 9)
The Classic Preaching Annual - Fully Revised and Improved!

For more than 80 years, The Minister's Manual has been the standard by which all other preaching annuals are measured. This year, a new design, revised content based on extensive market research, and a searchable CD-Rom make this non-denominational resource even more helpful to today's busy pastor.

The 2008 Edition is still the comprehensive and traditional resource pastors have come to rely on, but now has a more readable and attractive design and more practical and easy-to-use features. Turn to The Minister's Manual for:

  • Complete sermons for the entire year
  • Lectionary messages and worship aids to expand Sunday services
  • Feature articles that speak to the hearts and minds of ministers
  • A treasury of practical, contemporary and relevant sermon illustrations
  • A diverse group of contributors, a broad and contemporary range of illustrations, and new and expanded preaching resources
  • Lectionary-based children's sermons for engaging young minds
  • Lectionary-based music selections
  • Calendars of important historical, cultural, and religious anniversaries and dates
  • Eloquent and useful messages for holidays, funerals and bereavement, communions, and missions
  • A free and searchable CD-Rom of the entire contents to aid in adapting and using material for sermons, bulletins, and other messages

2.0 out of 5 stars Use of CD is restricted and limited, August 9, 2008
This review is from: The Minister's Manual 2008 Edition: The Minister's Complete Sourcebook (Paperback)
Good book and content, but if you plan to utilize the PDF copy on the included CD to "aid in adapting and using material for sermons, bulletins and other messages" as it says on the back cover--just save yourself some time and manually type it from the book, since the "free and searchable CD-ROM of the entire contents" is locked and restricted to reading (no cut-and-pasting allowed). Instead of the CD being a time saver--it is merely a time waster.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Minister's Manual 2008 Edition: The Minister's Complete Sourcebook (Paperback)
I bought this for my husband for a Christmas gift because he had received the 2007 ed last year for Christmas and really liked and used it a lot. He says he is somewhat disappointed in this one, for my uses it has been great but He expected more of the 2007 edition.
