Synopsis
In an age characterized by spiritual casualness and a forgetfulness of the pulpit's inherent dignity, John Henry Jowett's The Preacher: His Life and Work stands as both a monumental rebuke and a source of profound restoration. Originally delivered as the Yale Lectures on Preaching, Jowett's work has long been considered a masterpiece of homiletical literature, combining a surgeon's diagnostic precision with a shepherd's restorative warmth.
This Student Edition, edited by Pastor William Thomas Irvin, reintroduces Jowett's classic to a new generation of workmen who desire to stand between the living and the dead with a message forged in the fires of personal devotion.
Whether you are a seasoned pastor, a missionary crossing borders, or a young man first discerning the "morning bell" of a divine vocation, this book is an essential mirror. It will challenge you to reject the "malaria of compromise" and rediscover the "romance of the ministry."

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In 1912 John Henry Jowett stood before the divinity students at Yale and told them he had not brought a theory. He was twenty years into a ministry that had carried him from a Birmingham pulpit to Fifth Avenue, and what he had come to hand over were "counsels and warnings which have been born out of my own successes and defeats."The Church of his day was being urged to hurry up, to be current, to be "even a little sensational if they are to catch the interest of men who live in the thick of sensations from day to day." Jowett was fair to that case before he answered it. Then he spent seven lectures showing where the road goes, and he laid the failure not at the door of the age but at the door of the preacher.He will not tell a man how to build a sermon until he has told him what the man building it must be. So these lectures run from the call to the committee room: the perils that thicken around a privileged life, the themes a man must never trade away, the hardest and most fruitful labour in the study, the parts of a service wrongly called preliminaries, the visit to one ordinary house on an ordinary evening, and the plain question of whether a man can be worked with at all.This Student Edition prints the seven lectures unabridged, collated against the 1912 text, with every editorial change marked on the page where it occurs. A foreword, an introduction, and notes at the close of each lecture set out what Jowett argued and what a man can do about it this week. This item is printed on demand.
