"Many a preacher, having been given little or no warning that the way of application runs through rough terrain, has stubbed his toe on the rock of application. "Too often, a sermon founders on a preacher's failure to make a good connection between a message originally delivered to God's people millennia ago and the congregation in the here and now. Jay Adams has long been concerned for the art, science, and passion of preaching. In this book, he offers a cogent, biblical philosophy of application, together with practical suggestions about how the busy preacher can readily implement it. Truth Applied explains what application means, why it is necessary, how it is derived from Scripture, and how the Holy Spirit influences it. The book is liberally sprinkled with examples. It will motivate you to consider carefully your present theory and practice of application.
