Ronald Boyd-MacMillan rejects the modern fixation with form in current homiletics and advocates a return to the practice of eight fundamentals for great preaching.

This is a humorous yet hard-hitting guide to explosive modern preaching.

Book Synopsis Performance in Preaching (Engaging Worship) by : Jana Childers
Download or read book Performance in Preaching (Engaging Worship) written by Jana Childers and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2008-11-01 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, which launches the Engaging Worship series from Fuller Theological Seminary's Brehm Center for Worship, Theology, and the Arts, offers a unique study of sermon delivery. While many books offer advice on how to prepare, write, and preach a sermon, this volume is distinctive in approaching the subject from the perspective of performance. The authors, who teach at a variety of seminaries and divinity schools across the nation, examine how the sermon can bring God's word to life for the congregation. In that sense, they consider the idea of performance from a wide range of theological, artistic, and musical viewpoints. These thoughtful essays will engage clergy and students with new ways of looking at the art of preaching.

Download or read book A Preacher's Tale written by Jon Russell and published by SCM Press. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many clergy receive little training in the arts of preaching and it is assumed that they will learn by gaining experience. The renowned American preacher Herbert O’Driscoll suggests that congregations do not want to be given a map showing them how to get to the coast, they want to be drenched in the spray. Narrative preaching is a means of achieving such immediacy. By dramatic story-telling, it invites listeners into enter the text imaginatively and enables them to experience sermons as transformative events. This book aims to provide not just a theoretical introduction, but a resource that uses sermons in the narrative style to reflect on how to prepare and construct them and how to deliver them effectively in the context of worship.
Book Synopsis Calvin's Company of Pastors by : Scott M. Manetsch
Download or read book Calvin's Company of Pastors written by Scott M. Manetsch and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Calvin's Company of Pastors, Scott Manetsch examines the pastoral theology and practical ministry activities of Geneva's reformed ministers from the time of Calvin's arrival in Geneva until the beginning of the seventeenth century. During these seven decades, more than 130 men were enrolled in Geneva's Venerable Company of Pastors (as it was called), including notable reformed leaders such as Pierre Viret, Theodore Beza, Simon Goulart, Lambert Daneau, and Jean Diodati. Aside from these better-known epigones, Geneva's pastors from this period remain hidden from view, cloaked in Calvin's long shadow, even though they played a strategic role in preserving and reshaping Calvin's pastoral legacy. Making extensive use of archival materials, published sermons, catechisms, prayer books, personal correspondence, and theological writings, Manetsch offers an engaging and vivid portrait of pastoral life in sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century Geneva, exploring the manner in which Geneva's ministers conceived of their pastoral office and performed their daily responsibilities of preaching, public worship, moral discipline, catechesis, administering the sacraments, and pastoral care. Manetsch demonstrates that Calvin and his colleagues were much more than ivory tower theologians or "quasi-agents of the state," concerned primarily with dispensing theological information to their congregations or enforcing magisterial authority. Rather, they saw themselves as spiritual shepherds of Christ's Church, and this self-understanding shaped to a significant degree their daily work as pastors and preachers.

Book excerpt: When the authors of this book set about analyzing the data and reporting the findings of their extensive study on how laity hear sermons, they thought they would be sharing what listeners reported helps them enter into the meaning of a sermon and what prevents them from hearing what the preacher is saying. In a way, Believing in Preaching accomplishes this. But the surprising revelation of the study was the remarkable diversity with respect to how people listen to sermons. From the Channels of Listening series.

Book Synopsis Kiwimade Narrative Sermons by : Myk Habets
Download or read book Kiwimade Narrative Sermons written by Myk Habets and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of over forty narrative sermons illustrate the science and art of taking a text of Scripture, almost any text, and crafting it into a narrative that effectively and affectively communicates the content of Holy Scripture in ways that impact the congregation. Spanning the canon of Holy Scripture the present volume represents a snapshot of current preaching by Baptist women and men from Aotearoa New Zealand in an attempt to teach by illustration what narrative sermons may look like, and to model the potential they have to communicate God's Word written. Originally preached to a diverse range of congregations, each sermon has been re-written for publication and illustrates biblical fidelity, imaginative creativity, and contextual sensitivity. Kiwimade Narrative Sermons is a key resource text for classes on homiletics, a refresher course for seasoned ministers of the Word, and a devotional aid in its own right.

Book Synopsis The Jewish-Christian Encounter in Medieval Preaching by : Jonathan Adams
Download or read book The Jewish-Christian Encounter in Medieval Preaching written by Jonathan Adams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-03 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the complexity of preaching as a phenomenon in the medieval Jewish-Christian encounter. This was not only an "encounter" as physical meeting or confrontation (such as the forced attendance of Jews at Christian sermons that took place across Europe), but also an "imaginary" or theological encounter in which Jews remained a figure from a distant constructed time and place who served only to underline and verify Christian teachings. Contributors also explore the Jewish response to Christian anti-Jewish preaching in their own preaching and religious instruction.
Book Synopsis The Beginnings of Methodism in England and America by : Francis H. Tees
Download or read book The Beginnings of Methodism in England and America written by Francis H. Tees and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of this book, Dr. Francis H. Tees, has rendered a vital service in preparing a volume which tells of those early days of American Methodism referred to by Bishop Asbury. Dr. Tees for nine years has been the pastor of Old St. George's Methodist Church in Philadelphia, the oldest church in American Methodism. Despite a busy pastorate Dr. Tees has found time to examine records not always available to historical students and has presented this material in an accurate and historical attitude. Dr. Tees has done more than record historical data for readers of this volume will be inspired to emulate the courage, devotion, and warmth of heart that characterized the leaders of pioneer American Methodism. Dr. Tees has made a valuable contribution to Methodist literature. - Paul Neff Garber, Duke University, October 26, 1939. It is fitting therefore, that "The Beginnings of Methodism in England and America" should be recorded by the pastor, at the present time, of "Old St. George's" in Philadelphia. No complete story of American Methodism, nor indeed of world Methodism, could be told without the records of St. George's Church. Out of these priceless records and the archives of the Philadelphia Conference Historical Society, Dr. Tees has been in a position to gather these materials as no one else has done. This book, the result of years of research on the part of the author, will be welcomed by every student of early Methodism. It will be found necessary for the full understanding of the "Beginnings." - Channing A. Richardson, Department of City Work, Board of Home Missions and Church Extension. Philadelphia, Pa.
