Preachers have long turned to the Abingdon Preaching Annual for help with the central task of their ministry: sermon preparation. Now, the 2006 edition of the Annual offers even more resources and aids to those who step into the pulpit Sunday after Sunday. Chief among these new features is the inclusion of sermon materials arranged by topic, in order to assist in planning and preparing sermon series.  The reader will find sermon series on such topics as prayer, the life of Moses, the Holy Spirit, generous living, the book of Ephesians, and many more. Each series runs from three to six weeks, with a total of 13 series mapped out for the reader's use.
