Book Review: Adult Christianity for Today


Adult Christianity for Today is a collection of sermons written by a Lutheran clergyman. The intention of the book is to make available a collection of sermons to uplift and inspire others.

It is possible that these sermons could be preached in other churches with a little modification. However, some are specific to this pastor’s church, so some wording would need to be changed.

I am Southern Baptist. There is an old joke in the Southern Baptist church that implies that our sermons are longer than the Presbyterian’s. Several times while attending sermons in an Independent Baptist church, along about noon, the preacher would say, “No need in getting in a hurry now. The Presbyterians have already got all the white meat.”

Well, it appears that Lutheran sermons are even shorter than that. It is possible that this minister adds more to his message than he writes down.

That being said, these sermons are certainly inspirational and Spirit-filled. We would have to say that if one is looking for sermon material, or if one is just looking for some great uplifting messages, this is a good source for that.

Young ministers should probably add a copy of Adult Christianity for Today to their bookshelves. These sermons would do well in any Spirit-filled church.
