Famine in the Land: A Passionate Call for Expository Preaching

Book Description:

Preaching is a lonely, painful, arduous task. If God has called you to preach - make no mistake - gruelling work awaits. But God's people are starving, and they don't need another entertaining preacher. They need the Word of God.

In Famine in the Land, Steven Lawson decries the lack of substance in the pulpit and calls for meatier preaching. Through four incisive expository essays, he demonstrates the desperate need for biblical preaching today. This is the kind of preaching that landed the prophets in pits, prison cells and lions' dens - the kind of preaching that brings nations to their knees.

Such is the glorious, terrible call of the faithful pastor. How will you respond?
