How to Preach the Bible without becoming a Total Wacko

That's the subtitle to my book on preaching which has just been published through Amazon book publishing wing called Create Space.

Preaching Manual is an updated edition to the free online version available at Knol.

I'm pretty nervous about this because you know how the public likes to devour and criticize. Oh, well, I just gotta do it anyway. Sigh! :)

PS: That's my father-in-law's hand in the picture, holding his Bible. It's all in the family.
