The esteemed teaching team of Tom Troeger and Nora Tisdale invite the reader into their Yale Divinity School classroom, guiding the reader to build skill upon skill, working through inventive and engaging exercises.

I am just beginning to use this book in class at seminary. This book may be a four or five star workbook, but anytime any author sells and accepts money for a KINDLE EDITION that has the primary purpose of being used as a classroom textbook AND does not provide actual page numbers is cheating the purchaser. The likelihood that university or seminary professors will actually ever pay for a KINDLE EDITION so they could assign both page and location numbers is infinitesimal, and the frustration a purchaser experiences whenever the professor prints or orally gives all assignments by page number only makes a reviewer give both only two stars out of five, and two stars is being generous in my current state of mind.
I recommend A Sermon Workbook for anyone desiring to preach. I have a master's in preaching and this covers the gamut of exercises that one would need in order to become proficient in The Word. Again, a great tool!
This thin text is facile and glib, without intellectual substance. The section on multiple intelligences is egregiously misguided and misleading. The only reason for three stars is that it is accessible for a person with very limited theological background and it provides a very elementary framework for people with poor basic writing skills. If you have written even one decent sermon in your life, don't bother.
Great book! It really helps to get a minister into the mindset of preparing a sermon! It also uses fabulous examples from other seminarians!
