For all the energy, creativity, and imagination that the children's sermon has seen in the century and a half since its popularization, this classic treatment and collection from 1882 remains instructive, offering a glimpse, not only into its early expressions, but into principles and priorities that have remained remarkably constant. As suggested in a fresh introduction for preachers, many of these principles apply not only to a well prepared children's sermon, but to the essentials of preaching generally. By no means the final word on children's sermons, Hill's collection is nevertheless a winsome word that both appeals for and well exemplifies the short sermon for the young. Less a resource of ready-made children's talks for today than a treasury from the tradition, The Children's Sermon may nevertheless be mined by the young for its timeless truths and will surely appeal to those invested in classical Christian education and formation. For the adult who would deliver a children's sermon, it covers the basics of the genre in short order and sets high the bar for those who today would teach the faith to "the greatest in the kingdom." For the child reader, it continues to bear essential truths that speak to disciples in every generation.
