A book that I love and frequently return to, gets a review over at 9Marks.  The crit of Bryan Chapell’s Christ-Centered Preaching reminded me of some of the strengths of that book:

1) It clearly defines expository preaching.

2) It gives excellent practical instruction about how to prepare sermons (for example, the chapter on application – ch.8 –  is one of the best you will read).

3) It instills into the reader a theology of Christ-centered preaching.

If you haven’t taken time to read it, you should!
