Preachers often struggle with preaching Old Testament poetry. They are uncertain how to preach the highly emotive poems in Psalms, the one-liners in Proverbs, the tedious conversations in Job, the esoteric observations about life in Ecclesiastes, and the confusing love poems in the Song of Songs. Here leading pastor theologian Steven Mathewson instructs and inspires preachers to preach some of the most challenging--and some of the richest--material in the Old Testament. This companion to his successful The Art of Preaching Old Testament Narrative guides readers through preaching the oft-neglected Old Testament poetic books. Mathewson introduces foundational issues and offers basic methodology and preaching strategies that are faithful to the text and sensitive to its listeners. Highlighting Mathewson's skill at bringing the riches of the Old Testament to bear on the life of the church, this book makes scholarship on the poetic books accessible for pastors and pastors-in-training. It also includes sample sermons.

The inspiration for my compilation of poetry was to share some of my life experiences with the rest of the world. Ive broken the material up into three major components. I start you off with poetry of a more serious nature. Then I take you on an upswing. This is poetry including verses reflecting stories of coming out of the valley. Then theres the final component that just to show my versatility. Some verses are whimsical, maybe even silly. But sometimes a little lightheartedness is needed in ones life. And then finally my last entry is dedicated to my grandmother. I love her because shes like my anchor.

The war in heaven is not over; it has only changed venues. In the preexistence, we--each and everyone of us--exercised our faith in the future sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Satan and his followers were cast out. Those who exercised their agency and chose to follow Jesus, beginning with Adam and Eve, have been given the wonderful privilege of coming here to mortality to receive physical bodies, to rediscover our faith in Jesus Christ, and to grow in righteousness through the exercise of our agency as we choose to follow His commandments. These are exciting times. These are the last days, and the spiritual battle for the souls of the sons and daughters of God rages on around us. If we are to be successful in preserving not only ourselves but our families amidst these tumultuous times, then we must be informed. We must be vigilant, and above all, we must be prepared. The teachings of both ancient and latter-day prophets have been preserved to that end--to help us be prepared and to enable us to be victorious in our battles.
