The Ministers Manual is the single most comprehensive resource for preaching and worship available, filled with completely new material for 1999. Unlike other preaching annuals that simply outline sermons, The Ministers Manual provides complete sermons for the entire calendar year. This nondenominational guide offers you both topical and lectionary sermons and supplements these with two alternative sermon outlines for every Sunday. You can engage the minds of your youngest parishioners by drawing from the fifty-two children's sermons and stories and there are thoughtful sermon illustrations and messages for seasonal celebrations. In addition, The Ministers Manual will help you prepare sermons and prayers for such occasions as communion, funeral services, and Memorial Day.

Along with all this, The Ministers Manual gives you additional features not found in other preaching manuals. It provides three valuable worship aids with every sermon, useful for expanding your Sunday service. You can also enrich your preaching by drawing from the more than one hundred thought-provoking quotations and questions on life and religion. Further, this expansive reference offers topics to ponder at small group discussions and resources for evangelism and world missions. And the seven indexes put all of this valuable information at your fingertips. The Ministers Manual is truly unequaled in
