Providing a fresh, timely reflection every week on assigned scripture passages can be one of a pastor’s most daunting tasks. But when time or inspiration is flagging and you need the jump-start of creative ideas, the latest edition of the classic CSS resource Lectionary Preaching Workbook is just what the doctor ordered! Prominent pastor, former seminary president, and prolific author Jerry Schmalenberger draws upon the experiences of a lifetime in the ministry to help readers effectively share God’s word with crisply written insights. He’s created an outstanding set of practical aids to help preachers with their weekly sermons. Each chapter includes:

- a theme for the day’s service;
- commentary on the Old Testament, New Testament, and Gospel lessons;
- suggestions on preaching possibilities;
- an outline of possible sermon moves; and
- additional illustrations to flesh out the message.
