This chapter is an indepth look at the three common views:

Order BACK TO FAITH by Fred Lybrand

“Maintaining veneration for Calvin, this work resolves inherent contradictions to the Gospel found in the Reformed tradition.  Lybrand reiterates “faith alone in Christ alone,” and works accompanying salvation are “normal but not necessary” while cogently requiring the reader to reexamine theological traditions.  My prayer for the mindful Reformer: Read and wrestle with these words. Be willing to abandon all, for the clarity of the Gospel cannot be undervalued.”

Jay Quine, ThM, PhD, Dallas Theological Seminary;
President, College of Biblical Studies

………………………………..

“Fred Lybrand’s analysis of the common saying, ‘Faith alone saves, but the faith that saves is not alone,’ exposes the logical and biblical fallacies inherent in Calvin’s famous statement. With careful exegesis he dissects James’ discussion of faith and works with fresh insight into this controversial passage. When I read his doctoral dissertation I immediately encouraged him to publish this so that many others could benefit. The book is well written and finally puts Calvin’s cliché to rest—where it belongs.”

Preaching On Your Feet

Here’s an article from Leadership  on my book on Preaching without notes or manuscript.  Though especially for Church leaders, this information is helpful for anyone who want to become more effective as a public speaker.

PREACHING ON MY FEET

Ken Wilson posted these kind words on Amazon about Preaching on Your Feet…it really expresses my experience well:

I picked up this book at the last conference. Being a methodical type theologian, I had always memorized my sermons. After reading this book, I changed my presentation – but not my exacting exegesis. The response of the congregation has been impressive. The expressive dynamic of “real-time” interaction connected with them just as Fred explained. It could be compared to listening to a sermon on video versus interacting live. Same content – different experience level. Yes, I do leave out a minor point here and there that I had meant to cover; but, the results in effectively communicating God’s truth are well worth it. -Dr. Ken Wilson

What questions could I answer or explain about this this approach?
