The three volumes are based on The Common Lectionary (1992) together with other readings kept in the Episcopal, Lutheran, and Roman Catholic churches. A complete index of texts is included in each volume, making it useful for those who do not follow the lectionary or who are looking for commentaries on specific texts. Continuing acclaim for the series GCo GC There is no better one-volume resource for the weekly task of preparing sermons grounded in biblical faith. Over the course of the past year, the four authors have become my good and trusted friends as they helped me find something to say that is both lively and true to the text. GC GCoThe Rev. Barbara Brown Taylor, Grace-Calvary Episcopal Church, Clarkesville, Georgia GCL Simply put, the best commentary series on the best lectionary. An unusual blend of biblical and homiletical skills. GC GCoJames F. White, Professor of Liturgy, University of Notre Dame GCL Its exegeses are well written and extremely helpful in preparing sermons. I and my congregation are appreciative of this source. I look forward to reading the next volume in the series, and in the meantime I find myself continuing to browse through, study, reflect upon, write in the margins of, and otherwise use the previous volume. GC GCo The Rev. Rebecca L. Spencer, Central Congregational Church, Providence, Rhode Island GCL Professors Craddock, Hayes, Holladay, and Tucker have already established themselves as insightful and helpful interpreters of the scriptures. These volumes significantly broaden their previous contributions by embracing all the alternatives offered by the recent revision of The Common Lectionary.

Yet they crave the things that only the Bible can give them.”—from the Introduction\u003cbr\u003e\nAnd so the battle rages in the heart of every pastor who longs to teach the deep truths of God’s Word to a needy congregation, yet finds them reluctant to listen. Must the pastor sacrifice solid biblical preaching in order to be relevant?\u003cbr\u003e\nNo, says veteran pastor and teacher of pastors, Keith Willhite. The pastor must preach biblically AND relevantly. Relevance is inherent in the text—God took care of that—but clear communication of relevance in contemporary culture is the responsibility of the pastor. Without lowering the standard on exegetical and expository content, Willhite offers ten strategies for crafting and presenting sermons that will help listeners understand the meaning of the passage, affirm the sermon’s homiletical message, and apply God’s truth.\u003cbr\u003e\n“If you want to be relevant without being biblical, no problem. Or if you want to be biblical, but not relevant, no problem. But the preacher’s task is to be both biblical and relevant. Finally, this book offers strategies on how to do it.”\u003cbr\u003e\n—Howard G. Hendricks\u003cbr\u003e\nKeith Willhite (Ph.D. in communications, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Ind.; Th.M. Dallas Theological Seminary) is “an ordinary guy who stands up in front of people and tells them where to go,” at least according to his daughter when she was three. Keith teaches preaching and communications at Dallas Theological Seminary, where he serves as Chairman and Professor of Pastoral Ministries. Prior to teaching, Keith spent 10 years in the pastorate. He and his wife, Denise, live in Texas with their two children., ISBN13: 9780825441141 ISBN10: 0825441145 Material Type: paperback\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46130379751587,"sku":"RARE_05-22-24_ART_6015VG","price":22.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/51uDTor4XeL.jpg?v=1755006006"}],"url":"https:\/\/usedbookdepot.com\/collections\/preaching.oembed","provider":"Used Book Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
