This textbook introduces the concepts of sermons told in the first person from the perspective of a certain character. The book guides you through the process, beginning with simple biblical exegesis, all the way through thinking about the characters and making specific applications in the sermon. Specific ideas are offered that help the reader think through props, costumes, stage set up, and delivery ideas. A CD-ROM is included with the author delivering a first-person sermon. A great resource if you’re considering a new way of preaching.
