"There is a simple formula for sermon preparation that creates messages that apply and engage whether your parish is rural or urban, young or old, rich or poor, five thousand members or fifty," writes Michael Brown in the preface to Making the Timeless Word Timely . The other part of the task, of course, involves being creative and insightful enough to know how to take the general formula for sermon preparation and make it particular in its impact on a specific congregation. Michael Brown guides the reader though the formula and the skills to employ it with excellence and integrity. He also offers twelve examples of sermons that illustrate the approaches and do indeed "make the timeless Word timely." Michael B. Brown is an author, motivational speaker, adjunct professor, and for ten years was the Senior Minister at Marble Collegiate Church in New York City, America's oldest existing Protestant congregation. A graduate of High Point University and Duke University Divinity School, Dr. Brown received his Doctorate of Ministry in Preaching from Drew Theological Seminary. All across America in civic arenas, at corporate events, on college and university campuses, and for Chautauqua Institutes, Dr. Brown carries the mantle of positivity to audiences of all ages, teaching a proven approach to discovering meaning, healthy relationships, and joy in life. He is a frequent lecturer and preacher at colleges, universities, and Chautauqua communities across America. Dr. Brown is married to Page Plummer Brown, a native of Richmond, Virginia. The Browns are the proud parents of four children: Adam, Alison, Zachary and Katharine, and the delighted grandparents of Anderson Haile. Praise for Making the Timeless Word Timely "Most how-to sermon books use dry, uninspiring writing to encourage dynamic, inspiring messages. Not this one. This is a work that actually practices what it preaches. It is a joy to read and a jewel to share. Thank you, Dr. Michael Brown, for showing us by example how to make the timeless timely." - Susan Sparks, Senior Minister, Madison Avenue Baptist Church, and Author of Laugh Your Way to Grace and Preaching Punchlines
