About the Book

The Classic Preaching Annual - Fully Revised and Improved! For more than 80 years, The Minister's Manual has been the standard by which all other preaching annuals are measured. This year, a new design, revised content based on extensive market research, and a searchable CD-Rom make this non-denominational resource even more helpful to today's busy pastor. The 2008 Edition is still the comprehensive and traditional resource pastors have come to rely on, but now has a more readable and attractive design and more practical and easy-to-use features. Turn to The Minister's Manual for: * Complete sermons for the entire year * Lectionary messages and worship aids to expand Sunday services * Feature articles that speak to the hearts and minds of ministers * A treasury of practical, contemporary and relevant sermon illustrations * A diverse group of contributors, a broad and contemporary range of illustrations, and new and expanded preaching resources * Lectionary-based children's sermons for engaging young minds * Lectionary-based music selections * Calendars of important historical, cultural, and religious anniversaries and dates * Eloquent and useful messages for holidays, funerals and bereavement, communions, and missions * A free and searchable CD-Rom of the entire contents to aid in adapting and using material for sermons, bulletins, and other messages
