Listen up!

Provides crucial theology and practical advice about listening that can make the difference between life and death in the church. | We just don’t have teaching and training on how to listen to sermons. Christopher Ash shows what a gaping hole that omission leaves. | New, fresh, wise, and personally convicting. A must-read for anyone serious about growing as a Christian. | A great resource to help grow a new generation of believers who both tremble at God’s word and are changed by it. | We give Listen Up to all our new members. | Here’s a question for you. Think back to church last week. What was the sermon about? Have a think. What passage in the Bible was it from? Do you remember the main points from the sermon? Can you remember any of the applications the preacher made? | The content is spot on; the challenge not always comfortable. It includes ‘How to listen to bad sermons’ (and get better ones), but not ‘How to preach to bad listeners’; others may cover that. The preacher who knows his hearers have read this will preach all the better for it. | Christopher Ash has been a pastor and is now an author and Writer-in-Residence at Tyndale House, Cambridge. He was Director of the Proclamation Trust’s Cornhill Training Course from 2004 to 2015. He is married to Carolyn, and they have four children and ten grandchildren.
