Title: Preaching by Fred B. Craddock ISBN: 0-687-33648-1 Publisher: Abingdon Press Pub. Date: 01 June, 1990 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $18.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.4 (5 reviews)
Rating: 2
Summary: Poorly written.
Comment: If Craddock actually preaches the way he writes, then he has no business writing a book about preaching. Although the book is filled with insightful details and does a good job framing the sermon process, the language it is written in is poor. Since when were academics excused from writing clearly and succinctly?
Rating: 5
Summary: The title says it all!
Comment: This is an excellent basic text on preaching. Although I am not yet a preacher and am just getting ready to enter seminary, I can't imagine a more comprehensive book on the subject. I expected Craddock to beat the drum for his favorite style of sermon, the inductive, but surprisingly this is not even mentioned. For more info on the inductive style, I would refer the reader to "As One Without Authority". Especially valuable are the sections concerning the pastor's study habits, and how time spent in study is actually time spent with the congregation. Craddock is acknowleged as one of the greatest preachers of his generation, and this is an excellent way to learn from the "master".

Summary: The most usefull text I have read in seminary
Comment: I am a seminary student, as I am sure many of those reading this review are, or where. You know the assigned reading requirements, and you know about how much of the required reading you actually complete. With that in mind, let me say that this is the only text this semester I have not set aside, or failed to read, it is that valuable.
Dr. Craddock gives a sound theology of preaching, explains method in an easy to follow manner and gives the simple, practical, information so frequently missing from classroom discussions.
