Exegesis and Sermonic Development: The Path from Text to Sermon, by the Rev. Dr. George Gatgounis, Esq., provides in-depth guidance to producing sermons that are true to the biblical text so as to bring nourishment to our failing and feeble Church. It’s one of the few exegetical works that starts with the spiritual consecration of the preacher, since the exegetical process must first begin with communion with the Holy Spirit. This work is an encyclopedia of sermonic development.
It is basic to the Christian understanding of theology, history, and every other field of knowledge. Indeed, it is an issue so vast and significant that few books even attempt to span the broad spectrum of topics it raises.

Jesus' Great Commission is one of the key pillars of the church's evangelistic work and has been the guiding principle for missionaries throughout church history. In 40 Questions about the Great Commission, scholars Daniel Akin, Benjamin Merkle, and George Robinson unpack the meaning, history, theology, and practical applications of Jesus' command to go and make disciples. Ideal for personal or group study, this volume will reignite your passion for evangelism while answering key questions like: • Where do we stand in relation to fulfilling the Great Commission? • How do baptism and teaching relate to the Great Commission? • What is the meaning of "I am with you always, to the end of the age"? • How does the Old Testament relate to the Great Commission? • What is the special contribution of each Gospel's version of the Great Commission? • What is the responsibility of the local church to the Great Commission? • What are some mobilization resources that can help churches and individuals to become Great Commission focused? Other highlights include an overview of some of the great evangelists and missionaries in church history, and a collection of notable quotations on the Great Commission, ideal for teaching and preaching.
