Sermons and Hymns from My Heart presents 25 sermons and 10 favorite hymns of Rev. Dr. Monroe R. Saunders, Sr., who at eighty-five is a singular figure in Apostolic preaching. Structured like a sermon, the ten chapters, each of which opens with a hymn, lead you from invitaiton to decision. A reflection activity allows you to linger over, interact with, and respond to each sermon while song lyrics allow you to experience the joy of music as ministry. Spanning five decades and encompassing more than sixty-five years of the author's dynamic, anointed, revelatory ministry in various seasons as a preacher, teacher, choir director, singer, pastor and bishop, this book reflects the major themes in the believer's life: salvation, redemption, worship, humilty, faith, prayer, spiritual growth, commitment and leadership, and death and celebration of life. Dr. Saunders conceived, wrote and preached each sermon to lead believers to submission to God's plan and 'cosmic blueprint' for their lives. Woven in the content and cadence of such titles as 'The Great Invitation,' The Symphony of God,' 'The Power of the Crucified Christ,' For This Cause Left Thee in Crete,' and 'The Death of Death,' is the call of God to see Jesus, the Christ.
