Dedication
This book is dedicated,
with great admiration,
to all my colleagues in ministry,
especially those who work hard at
communicating Gods truth
with accuracy, clarity, and practicality,
and therefore are in constant pursuit of
just the right illustration
to get the message across,
lest they clothe the
riches of Christ
in rags.

Introduction
I AM A PREACHER. I have been standing before congregations and various other audiences in and around America for more than thirty-five years. I have served in pastorates in Massachusetts, California, and Texas. My travels have also taken me up into Canada, down through Mexico and Central America, and beyond the great oceans of this world, from Alaska to Australia, from Maui to Mannheim, proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ. What an invigorating journey! Through all these experiences, nothing has given me greater satisfaction and fulfillment than communicating on my feet, regardless of the place I stood, as people listened to Gods truth from His life-giving Word.
God gets all the praise and glory for this. After all, He is the One who distributes the gifts and the One who provides the insights, energy, and results. What a privilege it is to continue serving as a messenger of the King! I freely confess, my heart still skips a beat or two when I anticipate preparing and proclaiming His message. To this day, Ive not lost the joy or the excitement connected with being one of His voices. I love the challenges as well as the changes preaching requires. To tell you the truth, I enjoy the whole experience, including all that goes into the preparation process. I do my own research, I dig into the Scriptures on my own, and I read widely on a regular basis. Those disciplines provide a major source of my enthusiasm; thats how the fire starts to build within me. But admittedly the crowning moment occurs when I have the privilege of standing and delivering. When the Spirit of God takes charge and honors the hard work of study and prayer and planning and thinking, it is rewarding beyond description. Nothing compares to that!
Through all the years and in all the places I have been engaged in this calling, I have learned the value of good illustrations. Interesting illustrations. Illustrations that grab the attention and clear the minds of those listening. Illustrations that open the windows, bringing light to truth. Under the general heading of illustrations, I would include stories, anecdotes, quotations, analogies, incidents, experiences, poems, songs, delightful moments, struggles Ive endured, as well as humorous situations Ive been in that, when later told, help make the truth come alive. More times than I can count, I remember using such illustrations and watching God pry open the eyes and unstop the ears (not to mention soften the hearts) of others, many of whom were bound and determined not to give me even the time of day... until they were stabbed awake and compelled to listen. Those experiences have always thrilled me and sometimes amazed me. A well-chosen illustration can transform a hostile skeptic into an interested participant. I know; Ive seen it happen.
