Great Book on the preparation of sermons,
By Sherman Cox "SoulPreaching.Com Website Editor" (Nashville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Preach without Notes (Paperback)
This is a short but powerful book on the creation of sermons. The reader learns about different types of sermons, the source material for sermons, the mechanics of studying for a sermon, how to create a filing system for sermon preparation, the different appeals of sermons, 16 sermons, and much more.
If you want to learn basic homiletics and read some example sermons then this is the book for you.

How to Preach Without Notes: Building Expository Sermons`,
By Don (Odessa, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Preach without Notes (Paperback)
Kohler's marvelous book has been my main guide to building expository sermons since I purchased my copy in 1970. The following chapter titles are indicative of its impressive contents: The Scriptural Conception of Preaching, The Primary of Expository Preaching, The Advantages of Preaching without Notes, Homiletical Devices, The Steps to Preparing an Expository Sermon, The Analysis of the Scripture Passage, The Heart of the Sermon. Structural Components, The Way to Note Free Preaching, The Way to Perennial Freshness, The Basic Appeals of Biblical Preaching, The Minister's Vocabulary, and The Systematic Filing of Materials. A minister who uses Kohler's book to guide him in building expository sermons from the Word of God will experience an ever growing power in the pulpit.

Good book but needs a different title,
By spiritpolitik (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How to Preach without Notes (Paperback)
Though a good resource for sermon preparation, I found little on how to preach without notes. The book should have been entitled "how to develop a sermon". I felt the title betrayed the contents of the book. If you are looking for a source on sermon prepartion, this is a good one. It gives little, however, on how to actually preach without notes.
