Franks and Carroll move beyond the basics of public speaking and address the foundations necessary for preparing an engaging sermon. The 5 parts of this helpful experiential guide include: types of sermons, from exegetical to topical to children's sermons, finding the story and using the hymnal, reading the Bible aloud, communicating on paper and moving beyond the paper and presentation and practice. Each of the sections is designed to fit into a 2-hour session with the goal of preparing an individual to become a more effective preacher.
