As a master of biographical preaching, Macartney examines the successes and failures of great Bible characters.
"INCLUDING THOSE IN THIS BOOK, I FIND THAT I HAVE preached 167 sermons on the characters of the Bible. In a number of instances, however, some of the sermons have dealt with different aspects of the same men and women, or with different incidents in their lives. It has been a long and delightful study for me. I discovered early in my ministry that people like biography; and nowhere is there such biography, so stirring, so moving, so uplifting, so tragic, as that to be found in the Bible.
It has been a joy to me to learn that these different volumes of sermons on Bible characters have been suggestive and of help to not a few preachers in their own work and ministry. There are still other interesting men and women in the Bible about whom I have never preached a sermon. Perhaps at some time in the future I shall be able to preach on them also."-Foreword
