Seminary Hill Press releases revised and expanded edition of The B. H. Carroll Pulpit

The B. H. Carroll Pulpit, Revised and Expanded, the most recent publication by the Seminary Hill Press (SHP), the publishing arm of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, provides an updated collection of some of the first president’s most influential sermons and addresses.

The B. H. Carroll Pulpit was first released in 2021 as the second volume in SHP’s Legacy Series. The updated edition contains 44 sermons, addresses, and articles by the founder and first president of Southwestern, who pastored for decades before transitioning to roles in higher education. The revised edition includes a foreword by President David S. Dockery and additional sermons from Carroll.

“Carroll’s convictions related to Holy Scripture, to the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the local church, to the primacy of preaching, to the necessity of evangelism and missions, to the importance of Christian cooperation, to the significance of personal piety, and to the high calling of ministerial preparation and theological education remain the markers that characterize the Southwestern community nearly twelve decades after the visionary work of B. H. Carroll that brought about its founding,” Dockery said of Carroll’s influence on Southwestern in his foreword to the book.

The volume is organized into three sections: Key Sermons, Addresses, and Articles; Evangelistic Sermons; and Baptists and their Doctrines, with the latter two being sermons or lectures previously published as books. New chapters included in the expanded edition include The Case of Job and Lessons from the Case of Job, among others.

“We encourage you to read these sermons with thanksgiving to God, recognizing how applicable so many of them continue to be for our contemporary context,” Dockery said. “Our prayer is that the Lord will use this volume for good to strengthen the work of churches as well as those who are called to take the Gospel to the nations.”

The book can be purchased at the SHP website for $24.99. In 2025, a revised and expanded edition of The L.R. Scarborough Treasury of the Legacy Series was also released. It is available for purchase at the SHP website for $24.99.

“I want to express my deep appreciation to Jim Smith, Ashley Allen, Michelle Workman, Emil Handke, and the entire team at Seminary Hill Press for their dedicated efforts to produce this remarkable resource for the good of many,” Dockery said.
