Synopsis

Is your congregation starving?

There's a spiritual famine in the land—a shortage of faithful preaching leaving those in the pews dangerously undernourished.

We need people today who will preach like the prophets and apostles did, proclaiming the word of God with courage and conviction. Famine in the Land, a compilation and adaptation of four powerful journal articles by Steven Lawson, makes a biblically-grounded argument for the desperate importance of expository preaching.

Whether you preach to 3,000 or 30 this book will embolden you to:

• revere the glorious, painful, historical call of preaching
• dig deep in your study of God's word
• speak and live with uncompromising conviction

This is an indispensable resource for any church leader who wants to see lives changed through preaching.

Throughout church history, preachers who have left a lasting impact on the church have known that, in the words of Michael Horton, "the regular proclamation of Christ through the close exposition of Scripture is more relevant in creating a worshiping and serving community than political causes, moral crusades and entertaining services. In many evangelical churches, however, the centrality of biblical exposition is being demoted to second-class status. In a strange twist, the preaching of the Cross is now foolishness, not only to the world, but also to the contemporary church. The result has been a famine of biblical preaching in our land.
