The great British expositor and preacher, D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, artfully displays his ability to find and communicate evangelistic truth in Old Testament texts, providing a model for effective and relevant preaching today.

Author and evangelistic speaker R. Larry Moyer shows pastors and speakers how to communicate the good news. In twenty-seven helpful chapters, he explains why expository evangelistic preaching is so important and offers guidance for compellingly delivering the message of the gospel.

From the outset of his ministry in South Wales in 1927 Dr. Lloyd-Jones was an evangelistic preacher, as can be seen in this collection of 21 sermons from his ministry there. As with the early preaching of George Whitefield and Robert M'Cheyne, they show why the gospel is the most urgent, glorious and transforming of all messages. As a book specifically on the subject of conversion and the beginning of the Christian life, the publishers believe this will be one of the most popular and valuable of all the Lloyd-Jones titles. - Back cover.

Many pastors find it easier to preach on the New Testament than the Old Testament, with its powerful and often shocking narrative, prophetic warnings and calls to holiness. For many preachers seeking to make the Bible relevant, it's far easier--and safer--to stay out of the woods and plow the well-worn fields of the newer canon. Preaching the Old Testament equips pastors to journey into the forest and find a passion and confidence for preaching on the Old Testament. This book helps them keep up on their Hebrew, understand the themes of the Old Testament, and unpack Jesus' foundational text to take their congregations to a deeper understanding of Christ himself.

This book is a collection of sermons on the Old Testament preached by the author at home and abroad, in churches and in seminary chapels, intended mainly for a lay audience.
