From week to week, preachers are called to the daunting task of speaking God's words. If what they really try to speak are God's words, then preaching must have a vital God-centered base.Peter Adam builds confidence in preaching by laying a gum theological foundation. He insists that preaching rests on three great pillars: God has spoken, his words are recorded in Scripture, and he commissions people to "explain, preach and teach his written words to their contemporaries."Adam's emphasis on the biblical basis of all truly Christian preaching will make Speaking God's Words especially valuable for expository preachers. And his book is a model of the theologically deep but accessible communication he hopes all pastors will send forth from their pulpits.
