Burning Hearts cover

Affection is often a neglected theme in our generation of Bible believing Christians. It has not always been so. Previous generations thought a great deal about the centrality of the heart in the Christian life and the need to preach to it. This book will prove a valuable resource as we learn about the place of the affections in our walk with Christ and in preaching Him to ourselves and others.

For some, this little book will be a healthy reminder; for others, it will revolutionize their preaching.

-- D. A. Carson (Emeritus Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois)

It has not only convinced me of the importance of preaching to the affections, but has also inspired me to think that I must and can do this better.

-- Vaughan Roberts (Rector of St Ebbe's, Oxford and Director of Proclamation Trust)

Messrs Moody & Weekes, with plenty of good sense, would encourage us preachers to reach the hearts of our listeners... Are they making a timely point? I think they are.

-- Dick Lucas (Formerly Rector of St Helen's Bishopsgate, London)

This book turns on the lights, helping preachers understand how hearts and lives can be affected by truth. I'm thrilled to see this book, handling such an important subject so well.

-- Michael Reeves

...offers a wise reminder that the truth of a sermon - no matter how logically and accurately it reflects Scripture - denies the power of the Word if there is no intention to affect the heart of the listener.
