"Preaching," writes Phillips Brooks, "is the communication of truth by man to men. It has in it two essential elements, truth and personality. Neither of those can it spare and still be preaching. The truest truth, the most authoritative statement of God’s will, communicated in any other way than through the personality of brother man to men is not preached truth." This classic is organized as follows: I. The Two Elements in Preaching II. The Preacher Himself III. The Preacher in His Work IV. The Idea of the Sermon V. The Making of the Sermon VI. The Congregation VII. The Ministry for Our Age VIII. The Value of the Human Soul

Examining a wide array of ancient writings, Brent Nongbri dispels the commonly held idea that there is such a thing as ancient religion. Nongbri shows how misleading it is to speak as though religion was a concept native to pre-modern cultures.
