The first section of this volume contains ten previously unpublished sermons, including “He Didn’t Have to Survive” and “Stuff That’s Great from Romans 8.” The second section reprints six sermons from 2 Timothy, first preached at what came to be known as “Reuben’s Rock” in Estes Park, Colorado. All are vintage Reuben. His deep insights, humor, and passion to help us live with joy in the tension of the already-but-not-yet kingdom of God make these sermons both timeless and timely.
Deep study of the Word and a gift for bringing lofty concepts down to where the Christian life is really lived are what fueled the preaching and writing of Rev. Reuben Welch for decades. His tenure at what is now Point Loma Nazarene University as both professor and chaplain was incredibly formative for the thousands who sat under his teaching. Welch was sought after as a speaker for college and church revivals, retreats, and conferences throughout the United States. His messages blew a breath of fresh air into the Church of the Nazarene in the 1970s and early ’80s, the impact of which cannot be measured.
