Poor Eutychus might have tumbled off his perch in Acts 20, but it's humbling to notice that what took Paul many hours of preaching to achieve -- near-fatal napping in one of his listeners -- takes most preachers only a few minutes on a Sunday. Saving Eutychus will help you save your listeners from such a fate. Written by an Aussie and an Irishman with very different styles who share a passion for preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ, Saving Eutychus delivers fresh, honest, faithful and practical insights into preaching the whole Word of God, Sunday by Sunday, without being dull. - Back cover.
