Unlike other great preachers, Ray Friesen never preached to thousands on a Sunday morning, so I am glad that a collection of his sermons is available so that more can experience and appreciate his creative and engaging sermons. --Gareth Brandt, Professor of Spiritual Formation, Columbia Bible College In this book, Ray calls all preachers to use their imaginations to reach God's people in relevant and interesting ways. Ray emphasizes the importance of the task of preaching and the contextualization of the ancient writings. This is not a 'how-to' textbook, but if you are looking for some renewal in your preaching, this is a great book to inspire one's imagination for inspirational proclamation. --Gregory Kiel, Senior Pastor Southwest Lutheran Parish, Swift Current, Saskatchewan I picked up this book in the middle of my work day and had read to the end of the second chapter before I could force myself to put it down. I literally 'jumped in' and was soon caught up in the images that Ray creates. I can't wait to try out some of his story-telling techniques on Sunday morning. --Annette Taylor, First United Church, Swift Current, Saskatchewan
