The Man Who Slept Through a Sermon

By Ambrose Fletcher

The Man Who Slept Through a Sermon takes an unusual and memorable scene from Acts 20:7-12 and opens up its searching message for everyday Christian life.

Eutychus sat in the window, grew sleepy during Paul's preaching, fell from the third storey, and was taken up dead. Yet the story does not end in tragedy. God showed mercy, life was restored, and the believers were greatly comforted.

This short booklet does not mock Eutychus. Instead, Ambrose Fletcher uses this striking passage to explore spiritual dullness, human weakness, the danger of living near the edge, and the mercy of Christ toward those who fall. Each chapter draws the reader into honest self-examination while holding out the hope of grace, restoration, and renewed watchfulness.

Warm, pastoral, and rooted in Scripture, this booklet asks serious questions. Where are you sitting? Are you spiritually awake? Have you grown careless with holy things? What hope remains for those who have fallen?

With clarity and compassion, Ambrose Fletcher points beyond Eutychus to the Lord Jesus Christ, the Saviour who comes down to the weak, the sleepy, and the fallen.

Ideal for personal reading, devotional use, or group discussion, The Man Who Slept Through a Sermon offers both warning and comfort for any reader who longs to walk more closely with Christ.
