Product Description

(Foreword by Jay Adams) If more books on preaching were as interesting as this, then perhaps we would have more interesting preachers. --Howard Hendricks


From the Back Cover

The reality of ministry is that pastors often struggle-they struggle with the week-to-week demands of ministry that sap the physical and spiritual energy needed for sermon preparation and presentation. The result is that many pastors feen "buned out" in their preaching. For some, the only cure is a move to a new church that hasn't yet heard the same messages. Pastor Bruce Mawhinney has been there, done that, and has a hopeful and helpful word for pastors. Staleness in ministry can be replaced with freshness and vitality. It is possible to move up to a higher level of effectiveness rather than just move on to a new location. The format of Preaching with Freshness is as distinctive as its title: a narrative story outlines the real-life difficulties of an ordinary pastor who discovers principles of preaching that revive his own enthusiasm and effectiveness in ministry. If the worst sin a preacher can commit is to bore people with the Bible, then Preaching with Freshness is every pastor's guidebook to a vital, engaging pulpit ministry. Bruce Mawhinney is senior pastor of New Covenant Fellowship in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. He received his M.Div. from Pittsburgh Theological Seminary and his D. Min from Westminister Theological Seminary.

5.0 out of 5 stars I didn't want to stop reading it!, June 15, 2005
I am a Pastoral Intern for the summer and when the Pastor I am serving under gave me this book to read, I thought to myself, "great another book on preaching, as if I haven't read enough of these in 3 years on Homiletics." But I started reading it and I was enthrolled in it. I read it in three days, the fastest I have read a book in a long time, I just couldn't put it down. I read thru it and it reminded me of some things I had learned, some things I wish I would have learned and helped me explain some things I was suppose to learn in Hom Class.
Great book I would recommend it and think it would be applicable, whether yoy have been preaching 1 month or 50 years

God Bless,
Paul

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book about preaching written in a unique style., August 6, 1999
By A Customer
This book addresses the task of preaching and preachers in the form of a novel. It tells the story of a pastor on the verge of burnout who regains his passion for, and develops new skill in, preaching. Mawhinney does a good job of presenting solid, and sometimes profound, instruction for preaching in a very readable format. I kept reading because I wanted to find out the story ended. I highly recommend this book for new and veteran preachers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, December 10, 2001
By Terry E. Lange Jr. (Golden Valley, MN) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great book! It reinforces the disciplines of study and organization! I have recommended this book to many people and have given it to fellow preachers as a gift.

If I were pastoring a church, I would definitely use the principles found in this book to improve my pulpit ministry!

I thoroughly enjoyed the format in which it was written, any one of us in full-time ministry can identify with any one portion of the emotions and experiences that the lead character went through during the "dry spell" in his life!
