Praise for Firm Foundations:
"Peter Grainger's Firm Foundations sounds a loud and clear note for lively, imaginative, Bible-based, Christ-centered preaching. These principles and patterns will prove as helpful to the seasoned expositor as they will to the fledgling pastor. I commend it enthusiastically." ~ Alistair Begg, Senior Pastor, Parkside Church, Chagrin Falls, Ohio
"...a glimpse into the mind and heart of someone who expounds Scripture well in his setting. Like a good sermon illustration, the specificity of this book, with its many introductions and outlines, helps us who preach imagine how we could craft our sermons and sermon series that are equally faithful to Scripture." ~ Greg Scharf, Associate Professor and Chair of Practical Theology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois
"Both aspiring and established preachers are intrigued to know how other preachers go about their task. While each individual must develop an entirely personal style and approach, none can fail to be stimulated in the right direction by what this book provides. It fills a definite gap in contemporary books on preaching." ~ Derek Prime, Author and former pastor of Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh
"This is not a volume of instant sermon solutions! Preaching is work. Firm Foundations is another valuable tool for the workshop." ~ Bev Savage, Former General Secretary of the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches
