Dick Eastman
Baker Books, 1986
A turning point
What more can I say than this: As a sort of agnostic who did believe in Christ but didn't have him in my heart, I took this practical little book aside and began an hour-long prayer vigil using Eastman's outline as a guide. Before thirty minutes had passed, Christ changed my life and my character permanently. That was nine years ago. I'm not perfect, but I do know Jesus in a way I never did ...

Homilies Alive: Creating Homilies That Hit Home4 reviews
Francis Friedl
Twenty-Third Publications, 1993
one of the best books on preaching I've read yet
Clear, concise, and to the point. Full of information I found very helpful. I'm don't agree with everything, but at least I know in those places what the authors think, and in some areas, I'm reconsidering previous opinions. That compares very favorably to some other books I've been reading that are vague and unhelpful.

What a wonderful book!
Author Charlotte Wheat has a way with words and reading this book aloud makes them come alive. Of course, the story of Eve has been told in many ways countless times, but you've never heard it like this before!
