G.I. Williamson

Song of Songs, The G.I. Williamson

In his early days of ministry, Pastor G. I. Williamson said that the whole Bible is the Word of God and we shouldn't be afraid to preach any part of it. "Okay," someone replied, "preach on Song of Solomon." And he did. The eight resulting sermons became a landmark in his preaching ministry to his congregation and a source of blessing to others. "In my half-century of experience in the ministry I still look back on that series of sermons as unique," Rev. Williamson writes. "Through the entire series the eyes of the people were riveted on their preacher. You could hear a pin drop in the auditorium. And everyone--from eight to eighty--was there to hear these sermons. I cannot adequately express the sense of wonder that I felt in preaching these messages."
