Greetings! 

Book Recommendations during Sermons

Paul Jackson emailed me recently asking if preachers communicate titles of books they plan to include in their sermons. We grappled with this often-frustrating question through the years within other subjects. Let’s bring it up again. How do you work with your preachers about books they plan to share during a sermon? Respond here.
