This is a good resource for first year seminary students. I know the author and she practices what she preaches. I have had the opportunity to work under her leadership and I am glad she wrote these principles so I can refer back to them during my career as a pastor.
Delivering the Sermon offers preachers guidance, knowledge, examples and exercises designed to help them become better preachers. The book provides basics of all things related to speaking from the physical process of speaking to cross-cultural obstacles. I think much of this book will be to elementary for anyone with speaking experience, especially those who have been preachers for anytime at all. For folks who are considering entering pulpit ministry, this might be helpful because it discusses many of the ins and outs of public speaking. Brown begins each chapter with several examples of preachers (some of them students) delivering sermons. These include refined preachers and those who become physically sick approaching the pulpit. Brown explains much about the many holistic elements of preaching. This book would be recommended to those who have a hard time delivering the sermon. Seasoned preachers may find a tip her or there but probably will find this too basic. Brown encourages authenticity in the pulpit as much as anything. She summarizes her conclusion with the following quote: "Preaching is worship and not a separate entity. The fully invested preacher understands that all elements of worship working together lead the congregation—and the preacher—into a deeper individual and communal conversation with God."
This is a decent "How-To" book on preaching a sermon. I appreciate the fact that Fry Brown includes some warm-up exercises for the speaking aspects of the sermon. Would like to see more of those included.
Brown did a great job writing an easy to read, easy to understand, and easy to apply book to help both novel and veteran preachers. Reminding the reader constantly that the proclamation of God's word although varied must be catered with consistency and conviction.
Excellent book! Enjoyable and informative read. The author had great examples from her classroom instruction. Tangible things that I can implement in my sermon delivery.
Loved It!!! Dr. Fry- Brown is a preaching machine and Giant in ministry. It would do every preacher well to read this book and to learn to find there voice!
Too dense and difficult to read for me. The material may be there, but it's too much work to access it.
