"How do you adjust your preaching to each generation? Look no further for the answer. Speaking Across Generations has provided the answer key and just possibly the key to your staying fresh and vibrant in ministry over the long haul."

"As described by John Stott, preachers do indeed stand between two worlds, namely between God's Word and human life. From this sacred interpolated posture, Darrel Hall in Speaking Across Generations provides practical insight for constructing a homiletic bridge that connects with the various generational groups within a congregation. It has been my joy to personally witness him faithfully proclaim the Word of God in an effective manner wherein a generationally diversified congregation received the transformative Word of God in a fresh and inspiring way. This valuable resource will help gospel communicators extend their reach beyond the boundaries of their particular generation as they connect with others."
