- "James Irvine, Editor".
- "The collection of sermons for layreaders, which has been compiled by the Reverend Canon James T. Irvine, warden of layreaders in the diocese of Fredericton, for use by layreaders in the diocese of Fredericton and throughout the church, is a very valuable tool. One of the needs which has always been identified by licensed layreaders is for sermon material, and I am delighted that Canon Irvine has taken the initiative to have this volume compiled, representing the preaching of many bishops of the Anglican Communion throughout the world". -- Foreword.
- "The witness here has a unity in the message of the Lord Jesus and the proclamation of that message to peoples of the world. It represents as well the view of the world through episcopal eyes in twenty-five different provinces of our communion in a very brief period of time". -- Intro.
- Contains 31 sermons by Anglican bishop, five of them Anglican Church of Canada. Contents divided into five sections: Advent -- Epiphany -- Lent -- Easter -- Trinity-tide.
