Preaching to a World in Crisis

Horton Davies

This second volume of sermons, appearing after Believing, is organized according to Davies's journey in time and space and his first-hand experience of the troubled world on three continents: Word War II in England and Germany, race relations in South Africa, and the need for Human Rights in America. In addition to history, literature, psychology, and lore, the sermons mainly use argumentation to console the heart and show the way to compassion and justice in the name of Christ.

How Far Down Dare I Drink?

Horton Davies

This volume of sermons reflects Davies' imaginary qualities as he puts himself in the shoes of both biblical characters and the members of his congregation, using Christological exegesis and his love of art to produce compassionate, credible, and relevant sermons.

Believing

Horton Davies

This volume of sermons is organized according to the Apostles' Creed, which expresses Davies's own solid faith as a Christian believer. But the sermons themselves apply to a variety of situations from history, psychology, and lore. Davies uses the intellect to touch and console the heart.
