About

We know of the preacher's roles as both teacher and proclaimer, but Jeffrey Arthurs adds another assignment: the Lord's remembrance. With decades of preaching experience, he explains how to stir the memory of Christ-followers, fanning the flames of faith through vivid language, story, delivery, and ceremony. When knowledge fades and conviction cools, the church needs to be reminded of the great truths of the faith.

"Preachers, as 'remembrancers of the Lord,' are to do what Jeffrey Arthurs beautifully and evocatively does in these pages. Offering practical guidelines, he recalls the biblical and recent past, not just to bring it to memory, but to reactualize faith now. In so doing, one could say he remembers the present and future as well, and they take the shape of the gospel."
Paul Scott Wilson, professor of homiletics, Emmanuel College, University of Toronto
