Prince of the Pulpit: A Pen Picture of George W. Truett at Work

by Joe W. Burton

Book Overview

These sketches were first written as a contemporary pen picture of the ministry of the greatest modern preacher. Their composition was in September, 1941, following the completion of the forty-fourth year of Dr. Truett's pastorate in Dallas, the articles appearing serially at the time in "Southern Baptist Home Missions." Since Dr. Truett's death, July 7, 1944, the material has been revised and brought up to date. The example of Dr. Truett's prodigious ministry, one must feel, will ever be an inspiration to evangelical Christendom. His diligence in business, his earnestness of purpose, and his fervency of spirit will always challenge preachers to give their best to the Gospel. In the hope of capturing on paper something of the magnanimity of his spirit these pages were written. If through their reading anyone should experience a new devotion to the Saviour's service, our mission will have been accomplished. Joe W. Burton
