Preacher, Keep Yourself from Idols - Softcover

'Once again, Derek Tidball has hit the mark. In a creative way he addresses the potential problem of preaching itself being an idol for the preacher, especially looking at how the pulpit can be used to enhance the power and popularity of the preacher, and how falling into this temptation is, in fact, idolatry ... The book deserves careful reflection.' --Kenneth L. Swetland, Senior Professor of Ministry, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

Guidance and wisdom for maintaining good practice and avoiding temptation in preaching. With insight and wisdom, Derek Tidball reviews a selection of idols to which preachers are particularly vulnerable, under four headings: the self, the age, the task and the ministry. His aim is not to condemn, but to alert.
