"I have used Biblical Preaching since it came out in its first edition. Robinson's commitment to expository preaching with high contemporary relevance is the foundation for effective pulpit ministry, and the fourth edition strengthens the foundation even more. The new section on the theological idea is most welcome, as are the updated references to North American culture. I plan to finish my career teaching homiletics with Biblical Preaching as my first choice for a solid foundation."

Jeffrey Arthurs, Robinson Chair of Preaching and Communication, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

"I am blessed to say that Haddon Robinson taught me how to preach. The fact that his influential homiletics textbook, Biblical Preaching, is in its fourth edition is no surprise. It's clear, compelling, and clever. Robinson had such a way with words and images, in many ways he was a preacher par excellence. Read this book and soak in all you can on how to preach the Bible from one of the greatest preachers in recent history."

Matthew D. Kim, George W. Truett Endowed Chair in Preaching and Evangelism, George W. Truett Theological Seminary, Baylor University; author of Preaching with Cultural Intelligence and coeditor of The Big Idea Companion for

"I am beyond grateful for a new edition of Haddon Robinson's classic textbook on expository preaching. Scott Wenig has done a masterful job updating it. The genius of Biblical Preaching is that it teaches preachers to think deeply about the text, about their listeners, and about how to proclaim the text and its big idea in a clear, compelling way. This updated edition will serve veteran preachers who need a boost and aspiring preachers who need the basics."

Steven D. Mathewson, adjunct professor in preaching and biblical studies, Western Seminary, Portland, Oregon; author of The Art of Preaching Old Testament Narrative and The Art of Preaching Old Testament Poetry

"What is it that preachers do when they prepare a sermon? Robinson answers that question with clarity, wisdom, and wit for new preachers and seasoned preachers alike. But this book has always been about more than stages and phases. It deals with one's approach or attitude toward Scripture. The preaching that's most needed in pulpits today is the kind that comes from preachers who bend their thought to Scripture, not vice versa, while taking the listener seriously. Biblical Preaching is one of those evergreen titles. Its relevance is lasting. That's because the faithful preaching of God's Word continues to change lives. There's nothing more relevant than that."

Patricia Batten, assistant professor of preaching, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
