Book Synopsis

People can get daily truth injections through a very inexpensive yet effective device—the church sign. In this age of short attention spans and slogan-lovers, it is important that churches effectively communicate the gospel in sound bites.

Each quote—some from Scripture, some from contemporary thought, and some from the sages of life—encapsulates an entire sermon in just a sentence, giving people an idea that is profound yet simple. With few words, sentence sermons reveal truths about life that are easy to remember.

This resource includes 701 effective, pointed, and notable sentences that are sure to make your sign ministry, bulletins, newsletters, and sermons worth remembering. Includes handy topical and Scripture indexes.
