Books are independently published for a reason. Sometimes it is because no one else wants to do so, and sometimes it is because no publisher is willing to give an author a chance. I am glad that this fresh little book has been published.

It is formed of 50 letters on preaching written by the author to his younger self. It is a variation on the theme of “if you could give preaching advice to yourself as a preacher starting out, what would it be?”
