Description
In the Introduction, Stidger writes that he wanted this collection to have a wide “representation of preachers—geographically, theologically, denominationally, and by age groups.” He goes on to note that the book includes sermons by “leading English preachers,” the “immortals of the Protestant ministry,” a Roman Catholic cardinal, a rabbi, a layman, and a woman. Taken together, he says, these sermons will leave readers “with a new certainty of life’s eternal values and a new faith in the immortality of the soul” (pp. viii-x).
This book has a User Guide of its own, with information on the 9 preachers who had ties to Appalachia. This information is also available in the master lists of preachers and sermons..
