"In an age when people are arguing for an alternative to traditional preaching, Robert Linders has consistently demonstrated that the spoken word can be transforming. Members of the congregations he has served in Leonia and West Long Branch, New Jersey, and Doylestown, Pennsylvania, can attest to the fact that preaching Linders-style can be compelling. And now some of the "best of Linders" can be enjoyed through this publication." The Rev. Dr. Roy Almquist, Former Bishop Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod Evangelical Lutheran Church in America "In the Land of Linders, Bible hermeneutics meet today's news and memorable jokes confront philosophical wisdom in such rapid succession that one needs at least a good week of conversation at home to sort them out."
