by Edward W. Thorn (Author), Raymond Bailey (Foreword by)

... Edward Thorn has written an excellent manual... His sermons blend well the horizons of the Bible and the contemporary culture scape. Even pastors who never try a monologue sermon will enjoy reading this book and be enriched by the monologues.
(from the Foreword by Dr. Raymond Bailey,
former faculty member,
Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky)

The preacher who faces weekly the difficult task of speaking to a congregation is invariably in quest of help, and not only the kind to be sought in prayer. He or she is likely to have more than passing interest in the hermeneutical issues and to appreciate whatever springs of fresh water might well up from the sources of inspiration.

The work of Dr. Ed Thorn, Hoof 'N Mouth Disease, speaks exactly to the situation of the preacher with helpful insight into the task and some very concrete instances of how to do so creatively and interestingly... Dr. Thorn is well read in communication theory and has experimented successfully with narrative preaching... in which the preacher assumes a character from the Bible and imaginatively speaks from that perspective.

The book gives abundant samples of the approach, along with some models of how to incorporate the process into more traditional sermon structures as well. These monologue sermons contain much that is both bold and provocative, humorous and stirring.
