Book Description
A friend once said to Archibald Brown that the sermons he found most helpful and enjoyable were simple sermons. ‘What do you mean by a simple sermon?’, his pastor replied. The answer was, ‘One that is all about the Lord.’ This book contains many of Archibald Brown’s outstanding sermons on the Person and Work of Christ. It takes the reader to the heart of Brown’s ministry with an attractiveness and relevance that will never dim.

Richard C Ross –
This slim volume is a quite glorious treasure!
The sermons are unpretentious discoveries of the glory of Christ. In a sense the title says it all! Heart-warming, Christ glorifying, at times gloriously bold in their perception of the beauty of the Lord. I should like to quote from the sermon, ‘He spoke of me’, to pass on this sublime insight to the inner life of the Holy Trinity:
‘Oh, how infinitely precious Jesus must have been to the Father! How the coming of Christ occupied the Father’s thoughts. May I say it without undue boldness? It looks as if God the Father could think of nothing else. And when the Holy Ghost writes the book he too can never get away from that face. Every story, every incident, all serves to picture him.’
