Holloway preached a powerful and very personal brand of sermon at Gray's Inn, and elsewhere, between 1997 and his death in office in 2010. Such was his following that it went without question that a selection of the 190 sermons he left should be published, not only for the benefit of those who heard them delivered, but to reach the much wider audience for whom these unique essays will provide guidance and entertainment, as well as human and spiritual wisdom.
