The Minister's Manual, 2010 Edition

The single most comprehensive resource for preaching and worship

For more than 80 years, The Minister's Manual has been the standard by which all other preaching annuals are measured. Still the same authoritative preaching tool readers have always enjoyed, the 2010 edition is relevant, attractive, and easy to use.

Designed to work with a broad audience of pastors and ministers, it includes a CD-ROM that allows users to access and reproduce all the text in the Manual. Ministers of all Protestant denominations–from charismatic to evangelical to mainline–will find this a vital preaching and teaching tool

Lee McGlone (Arkadelphia, AK) is senior pastor for the First Baptist Church of Arkadelphia, Arkansas. He has been a contributor to the Minister's Manual for many years.
