Storms!

This book is designed to inspire, encourage, and remind its readers, Christian workers, laypersons, missionaries, evangelists, and pastors and teachers, that it is within this time of challenges, conspiracies, contradictions, and controversies that requires the preaching enterprise to be forthright, provocative, and prophetic as it presents the gospel message of Jesus the Christ with all urgency, clarity, and correctness. Well-prepared sermon manuscripts presented in the book are biblically sound, homiletically structured, and theologically correct and provide an excellent resource for busy pastors who sometimes must preach through "storms" within their churches faced with the stress and strain of their multi-faceted ministry in the church and leadership in the community. This approach to that prophetic word which meets people where they are is understood to be and manifested in three (3) distinct but interconnected and interrelated stages of prophetic and priestly preachingthat is, preaching while heading "to a storm," preaching while "in a storm," and preaching coming "out of a storm" with celebration on the shore of deliverance by a God "who is there, and he is not silent". Each sermon unapologetically leads the reader intentionally to the Friday Cross of Suffering where Jesus died for the redemption of humankind but especially to the Sunday Resurrection of Power when victorious living was made possible for those who believe.
