Synopsis

Sermon Science brings to bear research and key principles of learning to the development and delivery of sermons. This book provides all pastors, preachers, Sunday school teachers, and Bible study leaders with practical applications from the field of instructional design to move those hearing a sermon from mere listening to learning. Ultimately, the insights gained from Sermon Science will aid sermon listeners to more effectively recall, retain, and apply what they have heard. Not a “how-to” book or list of prescriptions, Sermon Science is a foundational resource for anyone interested in simple elements that can be incorporated to increase sermon impact.
