In this excellent manual, William Evans offers practical guidance to preparing excellent, thought-provoking and eloquent sermons on a variety of spiritual topics. The first two thirds of this book contains a variety of discussions regarding sermons. Knowing one's own personality and skills of oration is emphasized as important, as is an understanding and ability to interpret and properly present a chosen scriptural text. The piecing together and assembly of the chosen themes, and the three major phases of a good sermon - Introduction, Body, and Conclusion - are all discussed. In the later portions of the text, the author shows us examples of themes he has himself used over the years. Quoting the Gospels and highlighting each selection, Evans demonstrates a lucidity in justifying choices. He considers how each forms a picture for the audience and evoke spiritual thought in every listener. Finally, we are given an in-depth look at the system which William Evans used to prepare and organize his sermons.

In this guide, William Evans - one of America's best-regarded Bible teachers in the early 20th century - shares his effective, groundbreaking methods for remembering the Bible. Combining psychology with Biblical theology, this book discusses the nature of the human memory and how it may be purposed toward assimilating and retaining aspects of the Bible doctrine. In this large print edition, Evans' instructions are easy to follow and suitable for both adults and children, and techniques he describes may be used in wider studies of texts. Many of the instructions are unusual or unconventional even today; however, their efficacy is proven and attested to by many who were hitherto unable to recall even the most quotable and iconic of Bible passages. Each chapter in this book builds upon the last, gradually but steadily helping the reader train his memorization.

It is universally acknowledged that a good person in possession of a small or large fortune will often be parted from it There is a spine-chilling resemblance to the praying mantis in human behaviour. The mantis waits for its prey, then quickly dispatches it. The female often eats its mate during or after copulation in sexual cannibalism. Humans don't eat each other but devour through envy, greed, blackmail and extortion. Either sex, like the mantis, preys.

In today's cyber digital world honour is a relic of ages past. Somebody always wants what you have. Don't become a victim of the syndrome. Note the warning signs. Learn how to interpret them. A Mantis could be sat beside you on a flight, or where you work, at a party, or a recent lover plotting to entrap you. Once snared you are doomed. Don't let it happen. Read on to protect yourself.
