Transformative Preaching: How the Holy Spirit Empowers Preaching explores the divine partnership between the preacher and the Holy Spirit in delivering messages that bring genuine life change. Dr. Setyo Nugroho presents a compelling study on why modern sermons often fail to transform lives and how true preaching-rooted in Scripture and empowered by the Spirit-can renew the Church and impact society.

Drawing from biblical foundations, church history, and contemporary challenges, this book examines preaching from the Old and New Testaments through the Patristic, Medieval, Reformation, and Modern eras. It highlights how Spirit-led proclamation, rather than mere eloquence or intellectual mastery, produces repentance, faith, and transformation.

Through careful research and spiritual insight, Dr. Nugroho calls today's preachers back to the essential truth: only the Holy Spirit can turn words into living power. This book is a must-read for pastors, evangelists, seminary students, and all who long to see preaching once again become a catalyst for revival and renewal in the Church.
