<p>Ever wish you had taken more time to listen to the wisdom of a godly grandmother or grandfather? Ever wish you could articulate what you've learned about your life with God and pass that on to your children, grandchildren, or even great-grandchildren? Honor the Lord, even in small matters. Dee Bowman has distilled a lifetime of godly wisdom into small, manageable, memorable statements and stories. Life will teach its lessons. The question is Will you learn through wounds, bruises, and brokenness or through the shared wisdom of a Scripture-soaked sage? Dee Bowman was born and raised in Texas. After finishing his education, he entered the entertainment and radio business with his two brothers. He began preaching full time in 1971 and preached for almost 40 years at the Southside Church of Christ in Pasadena, TX. He served as one of the editors of Christianity Magazine for 16 years and as an Adjunct Professor at Florida College for 14 years. He is the author of several books, including Common Sense Preaching. Bowman and his wife, Norma Jean, have two children and three grandchildren.</p>

From the Forward: Now, thanks to Dee Bowman's book Common Sense Preaching, preachers young and old are blessed with a practical handbook that guides us through the thrilling process of sermon preparation and delivery. It is a book that teaches us how to balance form and substance. Above all, Bowman's approach to preaching is biblically based. A reverential respect for both God's will and God's word permeates every page. He brings to life the great preachers of the Bible and analyzes their sermons with profound insight, emphasizing the powerful way they preached. "Preaching that does not storm the will," writes Dee, "is not good preaching." Furthermore, he demonstrates how the personalities of these great preachers contributed to their love and compassion for people, and he encourages preachers to follow their godly examples . . . . Common Sense Preaching evidences a thorough acquaintance with sound rhetorical principles, drawn from a broad range of sources reaching back as far as Aristotle, and sifts through the mind- boggling mass of material on preaching written by contemporary authors. It is full of fresh insights gleaned from the author's many years of experience in pulpit preaching, radio and television broadcasting, and college teaching. In fact, no one is better suited than Dee Bowman to write a book on preaching. His life is consumed with the exposition of God's word. Read Dee's book with delight and profit from its pages. It will help you to be a better Christian as well as a better preacher (Melvin D. Curry, Jr., Chairman of the Florida College Bible Department, 1975-91).
