Review Quotes: I've been preaching the Bible for over forty years. It's easily the most difficult part of the pastoral vocation. It's what keeps me up at night and wrings me out emotionally as each weekend approaches. What I would have given for Dan Doriani's wisdom and clear guidance in Getting the Message at the beginning of my ministry. The chapters on application alone are gold! For those who believe that preaching really matters, here's the help they need to do it confidently, accurately, and joyously.--Ray Cortese, Senior Pastor, Seven Rivers Presbyterian Church, Lecanto, Florida
