Preaching in the Spirit Paperback – July 15, 2010

Good shape. Good price.Personal study.

It was well written, interesting, and heart searching. Great for someone going into ministry or seeking a fresh anointing from the Holy Spirit.

Great book! The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because I felt it would have been better titled “Pastoring (or ministering) in the Spirit.” While it did have a slant toward preaching in the Spirit it was not quite as focused on preaching as I anticipated.

This is not exactly an instructional book on preaching, as in one that teaches how to craft a sermon, improve our delivery or connect with the audience but a book that focuses on the preparation of the preacher himself. For this, it fills a huge gap amidst the scores of books on homiletics. Kinlaw succeeds in giving us a book that encourages and inspires, especially those who feel somewhat daunted by the awesome task of preaching the Word of God. Kinlaw is spot-on that it is not 'by might or by power but by the Spirit of God' that one should approach the task. It is God that makes the difference, not our learning, eloquence or charisma.. therefore the invitation to be filled constantly with the Spirit is an important one and Kinlaw shows us how, with his meditation on the Trinity, personhood and stories of ordinary individuals who were set on fire by God's own Spirit to proclaim his mighty Word. A useful reminder for seasoned preachers and aspiring ones alike.

This is a great book for anyone who preaches or is being called into the pastorate. Rest In Peace Dennis Kinlaw!

A classic Kinlaw. This book doens't focus as much on the pragmatics and technicalities of homiletics as it does the central importance of intimacy between the preacher and God (via the Living Word). This book is as much one about personal devotion as it is about homiletics.

This is a must read for the preacher who is looking for an easy read and lots of encouragement. I brought this to read while preparing a revival series.

If you are a preacher, get this book! I absolutely loved it. It did not take long after reading this book before I started some in my congregation said that they had noticed an improvement in my preaching.

Good intro to preaching and teaching the gospel.

This was a great book to read and I highly recommend it.
