A short book published by Eerdmans in 1994 containing two addresses: "Preaching Christ Today", delivered to the Scottish Church Theology Society, and "Incarnation and Atonement in the Light of Modern Scientific Rejection of Dualism", given to the Theological Students' Forum of Princeton Theological Seminary in 1992. The Handsel Press issued the first address alone the same year. It is one of the most accessible statements of his conviction that preaching must present Christ himself, and of how he thought the end of dualist science made that clearer.
