Based on the Revised Common Lectionary, The Wesleyan Preaching Resource features brief worship helps plus two sermon briefs and a children’s message on each week’s texts from a distinguished group of pastors and scholars. This year’s contributors include such luminaries as Donald Bastian, Ronald Blake, William Hossler, J. Ellsworth Kalas, Jerry Porter, C. Neil Strait, Stand Toler, J. Michael Walters, and William Willimon. A monthly “Pastor’s Corner” provides challenging devotions especially for preachers, and bonus sermons for special occasions and special audiences are also included. “Here is a practical resource for preachers. The idea is not to provide you with a canned sermon, but to ‘prime the pump,’ inspire, and stimulate creativity in your preaching and worship leading. Pastors, especially those in the Wesleyan tradition, will find this an invaluable resource.”—Maxie D. Dunnam, President, Asbury Theological Seminary.
