Based on texts mainly drawn from the books of First and Second
Kings, Robert Leslie Homes' finely honed sermons focus on the
ministries of the prophets Elijah, Elisha, and Amos. Through the
stories of the prophets, Holmes addresses the unchanging theme of
the gospel: that God loves the world and gave his Son, the King of
kings, to save it. Packed with enlightening illustrations, these
nourishing messages will help generate ideas for preaching and
enrich the faith of all who read them.
"I highly commend to you these sermons by Leslie Holmes. They are
well crafted and biblical. His quotations and illustrations will be
particularly helpful "
John A. Huffman Jr.
Senior Minister, St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church
Newport Beach, California
"This is a book for preachers, presented as sermons with many texts
but a single message -- namely, God's love manifested in Jesus
Christ. The author clearly understands that our primary task as
preachers is to educate the people of God in the spirit and power
of John 3:16 for ministries in a changing world. Our mission is to
be faithful to God's mission of love and forgiveness demonstrated
by Jesus. That is the challenge that Holmes brings to
readers."
Carnegie Samuel Calian
President, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary
"Leslie Holmes has prepared a faithful and practical resource for
preaching First and Second Kings. Whether or not the lectionary is
used, his insight into these passages along with the illustrative
material will prove valuable for the pulpit and the pew."
