This selection of exhortations is drawn from the large legacy of notes left by the late brother Harry Tennant. They are representative of the man

who with his spiritiual insight and wealth of experience could advice others on matter of exhorting: "The word of exhortation is no set speech, no display of oratory, no occasiohn for self preening or exhibition of a good memory or a discerning taste for good English. The world has enough of that. Rather, it is that through comfort of the Scriptures we might have hope. Let the brother seek to follow Paul in his words when he exhorted them all that with purpose of heart they would cleave unto the Lord: follow him in his true service for Christ when he comforted the souls of the disciples and exhorted them to continue in the faith". These principles are exhibited in this collection
