This book includes the original work as written by Archibald McLean plus these additions:
- Afterward by B.A. Berry
- Added chapter at end of book detailing the belief of churches of Christ, which are a direct descendent movement of Campbell's work, to obtain salvation.
This book is a study of Alexander Campbell as a Preacher by recounting firsthand experience of those who were fortunate enough to have heard him preach. Alexander, along with his father Thomas Campbell, are credited with helping start the Restoration or Stone-Campbell Movement. This Movement started as a means to 'get back to only the Bible' and to do away with all church creeds. Simply 'speak where the Bible speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent.' Several American church groups trace their history to the Campbell's leadership; most notably the church of Christ and the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Alexander Campbell is also the founder of Bethany College in Bethany, West Virginia.
Since very few written sermons exist from Campbell and since Campbell lived before any type of recording devices were invented, this book seeks to put his style of preaching into perspective. What made Alexander Campbell a great preacher? This book sought out and records firsthand experiences of those who actually sat and heard Campbell proclaim the Word of God.
