Challenging modern preachers to expound the Bible like Peter and Paul, Him We Proclaim makes the hermeneutical and historical case for a return to apostolic preaching -- preaching that is Christ-centered, redemptive-historical, missiologically communicated, and grounded in grace. But moving beyond theory, Him We Proclaim provides examples of how this method applies to all Old and New Testament genres, from history and law to psalm and prophecy to doctrine and exhortation.

"This book holds the promise of the recovery of biblical preaching for those who will give themselves to the demanding and glorious task of setting each text within the context of god's redemptive plan. This is a book that belongs on ever preacher's bookshelf."
-R. Albert Mohler Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

"Apostolic hermeneutics? Dare we read the Scripture backward as well as forward? Dennis Johnson's answer is a marvelously informed and convincing 'yes!' Him We Proclaim is sure to be widely read and discussed both in the academy and by groups of serious-minded preachers of the Word."
-R. Kent Hughes, Senior Pastor Emeritus, College Church, Wheaton, IL

"If only we could learn to preach like Peter and Paul. The wish becomes solid reality in Dennis Johnson's wonderful advocacy of preaching Jesus Christ in the twenty-first century as the apostles did in the first. Under Johnson's tutelage, preaching apostolic, Christ-centered, redemptive historical, missiological sermons that are grace-driven becomes a dream within reach."
-Bryan Chapell, President and Professor of Practical Theology, Covenant Theological Seminary, and author of Christ-Centered Preaching
