Excerpt from Lectures on the History of Preaching The author of these Lectures stood in the very front rank of the preachers both of his country and his age. His first volume of Sermons, republished on this side of the Atlantic under the title of "The Day Dawn and the Rain," and originally issued in Edinburgh in 1869, as "Sermons by Rev. John Ker," is now in its thirteenth edition in Great Britain, and has attracted the attention and called forth the commendation of the best critics. The discourses which it contains are characterized by originality of thought, simplicity of style, and a certain quiet power that carries conviction without any straining after effect. His lines of method are all natural without being obvious, and his movement along these is always singularly easy and delightful. The same qualities distinguish his second volume, which, though published after his death in 1886, is a worthy companion of the first, and has already taken its place among the homiletic models of our times. For many years before his death a nervous break-down in health incapacitated him for regular pulpit work.

John A. Broadus (1827-1895) delivered these five lectures in May of 1876 at Newton Theological Institute near Boston, and they immediately caused a stir of interest for their publication. It was lectures like these which later moved his student E.C. Dargan to desire to spend his life studying the history of preaching. This eventually led Dargan to write his two volume massive work on "A History of Preaching" (recently published by Solid Ground).Lecture 1: Specimens of Preaching in the BibleLecture 2: Preaching in the Early Christian CenturiesLecture 3: Medieval and Reformation PreachingLecture 4: The Great French PreachersLecture 5: The English Pulpit"This volume covers a most neglected field, and handles the subject with great skill."

Excerpt from The Message and the Messengers: Lessons From the History of Preaching The publication of this little book is due to the interest of several cultivated Christian wom en. The contents were originally delivered in a special course of lectures before the Divinity School, but these Christian women felt that lay men, especially Sunday-school teachers, would be interested in their untechnical treatment of great spiritual principles affecting the sermon, and in the glimpses given of unfamiliar bistori cal pictures. Hence they concerned themselves, after seeking the best advice, to have the lectures published, mainly for the sake of the laity.

Excerpt from Nine Lectures on Preaching: Delivered at Yale, New Haven, Connecticut F I rightly understand the objects for which the Lyman Beecher Lectureship was founded, the Lecturer is not expected to deliver a complete and systematic course on Homiletics. He discharges his duty if he offers to the students whom he has the honour of addressing those practical suggestions with regard to the work of the Christian Preacher which have been verified by his own experience and observation.

Excerpt from Lectures on the Preaching of Christ: A Supplement to Lectures on the History of Christ This volume is the result of the author's attempt to preserve unbroken the narrative contained in his Lectures on the History of Christ. As that object required the omission of the discourses of our Re deemer, an intimation was given that these might, at some future time, be published so as to form a con cluding volume; and as this semblance of a promise has been pleaded by those whose judgment and piety command affectionate deference, especially when they urge that the discourses of Christ are too important to be omitted by those who write of his life, an attempt to supply what may be deemed a desidera turn, is now presented to the public, and especially to those who have perused the work of which the following pages are the sequel. Taken by itself, indeed, the theme of this volume must be deeply interesting, even to those who may have so studied the facts of Christ's history as scarcely to need farther information; but as the sermons of our Lord derive additional value from their admirable adapta tion to the occasions on which they were delivered.

Excerpt from Homiletic: Lectures on Preaching Christlieb died at the moment when he had just begun to gather round him a larger circle of decidedly believing students of theology, who were trained by him to a more scriptural and practical conception and exercise of the preacher's office, and whose devoted activity in the Church has since given proof of the justice and usefulness of their master's teaching.

Excerpt from Lectures on Preaching: Delivered to the Students of Yale College, in 1879 The Lectures are now submitted not only to the Classes which heard them, but to all Students for the Ministry; and, also, to the laity of the Churches, who are the. Friends of the Pulpit. If they shall prove in some degree beneficial to young Ministers in stimulating them to a more earnest devotion to their holy work, and to the acquisition of greater power and usefulness, the writer will feel that his labor has not been in vain.
