Views & Reviews: The Encyclopedia of 15,000 Illustrations

There are many good books of sermon illustrations, but this one is extensive (as the title suggests), not only in the number of stories provided, but in the breadth of the subjects covered. The work has nearly doubled in size since its original publication nearly thirty years ago.
