"He is by far the ablest man now standing in the English-speaking pulpit." Alexander Whyte "Dr. Parker occupies a lonely place among the preachers of our day. His position among preachers is the same as that of a poet among ordinary men of letters." Ian MacLaren "The most outstanding preacher of his time." Margaret Bywater Thousands flocked to hear Joseph Parker preach four times a week at the City Temple, in London. When asked what his hobby was, Parker would respond, "preaching!" Parker poured his life and soul into the work of preaching. He preached through the entire Bible in just seven years—a massive undertaking—and the 26-volume People's Bible is the result. This series consists of over 1100 sermons, and has also been published as Preaching Through the Bible.
