No matter where we are in our preaching journey, we can learn from this man, who does it well. Listen to Abe preach, and I promise that you will be blessed with fresh insights and clear applications. You will also take note of his ability to pay careful attention to the text all the while showing its relevance to todays audience. In this book, he uses illustrations to help us understand how he gets from text to sermon, from two thousand years ago to today.
Erwin W. Lutzer , pastor emeritus, The Moody Church
Abraham Kuruvilla is the E. F. Hutton of the homiletical world. When he writes, professors and preachers read! I have been greatly helped and wonderfully blessed through his other volumes on preaching, Privilege the Text! and A Vision for Preaching . This newest volume is exactly what its title suggests: a manual for preaching. In this wonderfully readable volume, Dr. Kuruvilla takes us on the homiletical journey from getting ready to preach to the final step of delivering a sermon. Professors will find this volume filled with transferable concepts to share with their students. Preachers will find it to be invaluable as we all learn to preach Gods word more effectively. Dr. Kuruvilla has written. We should now read and apply!
Jerry Vines , pastor emeritus, First Baptist Church, Jacksonville, Florida; former president of the Southern Baptist Convention
Abe Kuruvilla is one of my favorite preachers and homileticians because he consistently and beautifully blends meaty exegesis and engaging exposition better than anyone I know. Whenever Kuruvilla opens the wordwhether in the classroom or in the pulpitbiblical authors live and breathe. His Manual for Preaching is an opportunity for a generation of preachers to learn how to preach from a master as they make the journey with him from the sacred text to a contemporary setting.
Hershael W. York , Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
Abe Kuruvilla knows that the journey from text to sermon is not a straight line. Each week the preacher faces a brand-new challenge: How exactly do we get from this particular text to a sermon that is biblically faithful, theologically accurate, and life changing in its impact? This book offers a reliable guide that will encourage preachers by showing them it can be done. A Manual for Preaching is exactly what its name implies. Here you will find practical help that will enable you to enter the pulpit with confidence week after week. Read it! Study it! Share it with a friend!
Ray Pritchard , president, Keep Believing Ministries
Homileticians and expositors are getting accustomed to expecting solid work from Dr. Abe Kuruvilla, and this new manuscript will not disappoint them in the least. Therefore, I am happy to recommend this new title A Manual for Preaching: The Journey from Text to Sermon . Ever since I read Dr. Kuruvillas book Privilege the Text! , I have been one of his fans. This volume fits right in line with that previous volume. I think pastors, students, and laypersons will enjoy this new work just as well. I give it my highest commendation.
Walter C. Kaiser Jr. , president emeritus, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

In J. K. Rowlings magnificent seven-part series that recounts the adventures of Harry Potter and his coterie at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there are a number of magical artifacts, none perhaps as fascinating as the Pensievethe name a play on pensive and sieve. This, in Rowlings exquisitely imaginative conception, is a shallow stone basin covered in runes that is used to store, recover, and review memories. Witches and wizards can extract their memories and save them in the Pensieve in a silvery, thread-like form that is neither gas nor liquid. Later, the owner or another can examine those memories, experiencing the remembered events from a third-party, omniscient perspective, a sort of magical virtual reality. In an interview, Rowling confirmed that the Pensieve does not function like a diary, confined to what one remembers. The Pensieve re-creates a moment for you, so you could go into your own memory and relive things that you didnt notice [at] the time. Its somewhere in your head, which Im sure it is, in all of our brains. Im sure if you could access it, things that you dont know you remember are all in there somewhere.
Writing this book was like accessing my personal homiletical Pensieve, digging deep into the foggy sermonic recesses of my brain, extracting all my thoughts and feelings and experiences concerning preaching, some that I was not even conscious of. A marvelous exercise indeed! And putting it all on paper brought into tremendous focus the whats, hows, and whys of the growth and development of my identity as a researcher, teacher, and practitioner of preaching. No doubt, this is a work still in progress, and for Gods providence and grace throughout this process, I am, and will eternally remain, grateful beyond words.
