In this book, I would like to share just a very few of the sermon outlines that the Holy Spirit has given me for my church. Perhaps you will find some of the insights and truths outlined in this book to be useful in preaching. Remember that these are sermon outlines and you will need to fill them in with the message that God is giving you for your church, Bible study group, or home group. I am a pastor who has been baptized in the Holy Spirit, and so some of my sermon outlines point to the empowering and gifting that comes with this experience. If you belong to a denomination that does not teach the baptism of the Holy Spirit as an experience independent of salvation, you will still find many of these outlines to be useful as you preach about the basics concerning our Lord Jesus Christ.

This is book 2 of my sermon outline series, and as in book 1, I would like to share just a very few of the sermons that the Holy Spirit has given me for my church. These outlines will be of great value to pastors, preachers, teachers, small group leaders, and to anyone who would use them for personal devotions or meditations. I am sure that you will find the insights and truths outlined in this book to be useful in reaching both the churched and unchurched in your community. Remember that these are sermon outlines, and you will need to fill them in with the message that God is giving you for your church, Bible study group, or home group.

John Jefferson Davis summons the resources of traditional biblical meditation for a culture lost in the cloud.

Renowned pastor and New York Times bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet Timothy Keller explores the power of prayer. Christians are taught in their churches and schools that prayer is the most powerful way to experience God. But few receive instruction or guidance in how to make prayer genuinely meaningful. In Prayer, renowned pastor Timothy Keller delves into the many facets of this everyday act. With his trademark insights and energy, Keller offers biblical guidance as well as specific prayers for certain situations, such as dealing with grief, loss, love, and forgiveness. He discusses ways to make prayers more personal and powerful, and how to establish a practice of prayer that works for each reader. Dr. Keller’s previous books have sold more than one million copies. His Redeemer Presbyterian Church is not only a major presence in his home base of New York, it has also helped to launch more than two hundred fifty other churches in forty-eight cities around the world. His teachings have already helped millions, the majority of whom pray regularly. And with Prayer, he’ll show them how to find a deeper connection with God.
