It’s not unusual for preachers to wonder if anyone is actually listening out there. In his book How to Get Your Sermon Heard (Plateau Books), William Hethcock offers counsel to preachers seeking “to win minds and hearts.” The author is an Episcopal priest and professor who writes from and to a mainline perspective; indeed, his extensive list of references is virtually devoid of evangelical voices. Readers will find useful insights on issues like preaching on lectionary texts and preaching at weddings and funerals.
