Book Synopsis Expository Preaching in Africa by : Ezekiel A. Ajibade
Download or read book Expository Preaching in Africa written by Ezekiel A. Ajibade and published by HippoBooks. This book was released on 2021-06-30 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can expository preaching, rooted in a textual analysis of Scripture, be effectively utilized in oral cultures? In Expository Preaching in Africa, Ezekiel A. Ajibade engages this challenge directly, offering practical techniques for integrating African oral elements – such as myths, proverbs, folklore, dance, drama, poetry, and storytelling – into preaching that is both biblical and African. Alongside numerous examples and tools, Ajibade provides a rich overview of the nature of orality, the history and development of African preaching, and the reason biblical exposition must be central to gospel proclamation. He reminds us that it is the word of God, incarnated among us, that has the power to transform lives and revitalize nations. Contextualized expository preaching is not, therefore, one technique to be utilized among many; it is, rather, the heart of biblical teaching and the future of the African church. While contributing significantly to studies in contextualization and homiletics, this book is immediately applicable to practitioners, especially African preachers and those working in oral contexts.
Book Synopsis Expository Preaching in Africa by : Joel K T Biwul
Download or read book Expository Preaching in Africa written by Joel K T Biwul and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-22 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest need of the hour for the Church in Africa is the clear and unambiguous presentation of the Word of God. It follows therefore that the most important role of the pastor, the man/woman of God, the preacher and the minister is the clear presentation of the Word of God (2 Tim 4:2). The current trend where the emphasis on the pulpit is on healing, miracles, deliverance, story-telling, etc., is actually misplaced in terms of priority of the Word of God. The obsession with supernatural activities, and demonic activities is wrongheaded and dangerous. Expository Preaching in Africa by Rev. Dr. Joel Biwul is a bold and courageous corrective. The motivation for the book explicitly stated by the author, is "to assist pastors and teachers of the Scriptures to adequately let out the divine voice from the divine text to the contemporary African context."

Book Synopsis Preaching the Scriptures by : Joel K. T. Biwul
Download or read book Preaching the Scriptures written by Joel K. T. Biwul and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African church needs preachers who preach the Scriptures to bring people to Christ and nurture them in the faith. Yet many are failing at this task. Some use their sermons to promote themselves rather than Christ, while others do not know how to preach from the Scriptures. In Preaching the Scriptures Dr Joel Biwul addresses these problems. Using African stories and illustrations, he clearly sets out the process of preparing and delivering a sermon that is rooted in the Scriptures. He also provides sample sermons and outlines that will help preachers apply these principles in their own preaching preparation.
Download or read book Say It! written by Eric C Redmond and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Say It! A Celebration of Expository Preaching in the African American Tradition argues that Biblical Exposition is most dynamic when coupled with the African American preaching tradition. Charlie Dates, Romell Williams, George Parks, Jr., Terry D. Streeter and a cast of pastors and preaching professors collaborate to demonstrate the power of exposition in the cradle of the Black pulpit. The contributors in this volume give examples of African American Biblical exposition in every section of the Old Testament and New Testament. They also explain how to preach from narrative, poetical, prophetic, epistolary, and apocalyptic genres throughout the Scriptures. This important and powerful resource celebrates the faithful, biblical preaching of African Americans that is so often overlooked because it's stylistically different than the style of most white preachers. Appropriate for training associate ministers or use as a textbook in homiletics, Say It! will give the preacher what is needed to speak to real life from every page of the Book!
Download or read book Somebody Must Come Preaching written by and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-08 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a not a sermon book on how to preach, but rather a book of sermons from a cadre of preachers representing a cross section of generations that include: Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials. That was intentional as we endeavor to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. When preaching has been strong in the Christian church, the church has been strong, when preaching has been weak, the church has been weak. We need strong preaching and strong churches.In Somebody Must Come Preaching you will see that each preacher has his own unique style of sharing the Word. You will be fascinated, encouraged, and motivated as you read the genres of Narrative preaching, Topical preaching, Evangelistic preaching, and Textual preaching. I believe the interview section regarding "being sent" and "passing the baton" are necessary in our brotherhood. The "Introduction to Preaching," along with the articles on "Expository Preaching" and "Ministerial Transition" in an African American context, give a "tools-shed" perspective of the heavenly treasure entrusted to earthen vessels.

Download or read book Preach It! written by Carol Tomlin and published by SCM Press. This book was released on 2019-02-28 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of preaching and preaching style have up to this point focused almost exclusively on a western eurocentric understanding of good preaching. Preach It encourages students, both vocational and scholarly, to look beyond these approaches and to learn from traditions with which they are less familiar. The distinctive style and techniques that African Caribbean Pentecostal preachers have inherited has been shaped by historical, political and socio-economic factors impacting on black Caribbean people (including clergy). Using a variety of socio-linguistic and theological approaches, Preach It reflects on these techniques, and outlines how preachers across church traditions might learn from them and use them in their own contexts.

Download or read book Deep Preaching written by J. Kent Edwards and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2009 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J. Kent Edwards recalls a story that late pastor J. Vernon McGee told about seeing children in South Africa playing a game of marbles in the dust with real diamonds. The precious stones were being handled with no regard for their true worth. Edwards fears the same thing happens today when preachers offer Scriptural truth to listeners without being completely overwhelmed by its greatness themselves in the process. Deep Preaching is his call to "rethink" preaching. Edwards helps preachers learn to preach the word in ways that will powerfully change the lives of hearers. He contends that sermons "need not settle comfortably on the lives of the listeners like dust on a coffee table." He encourages preachers to join him in casting off the lines that moor their ministries to the status-quo and make every effort to steer their preaching out of the "comfortable shallows." He urges them to preach deep sermons rather than superficial ones, moving "beyond the yawn-inspiring to the awe-inspiring, from the trite to the transforming."

Book Synopsis A History of Preaching Volume 2 by : Rev. O.C. Edwards JR.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Preaching brings together narrative history and primary sources to provide the most comprehensive guide available to the story of the church's ministry of proclamation. Bringing together an impressive array of familiar and lesser-known figures, Edwards paints a detailed, compelling picture of what it has meant to preach the gospel. Pastors, scholars, and students of homiletics will find here many opportunities to enrich their understanding and practice of preaching. Ecumenical in scope, fair-minded in presentation, appreciative of the contributions that all the branches of the church have made to the story of what it means to develop, deliver, and listen to a sermon, A History of Preaching will be the definitive resource for anyone who wishes to preach or to understand preaching's role in living out the gospel. Volume 2 contains primary source material on preaching drawn from the entire scope of the church's twenty centuries. The author has written an introduction to each selection, placing it in its historical context and pointing to its particular contribution. Each chapter in Volume 2 is geared to its companion chapter in Volume 1's narrative history. Volume 1, available separately as 9781501833779, contains Edwards's magisterial retelling of the story of Christian preaching's development from its Hellenistic and Jewish roots in the New Testament, through the late-twentieth century's discontent with outdated forms and emphasis on new modes of preaching such as narrative. Along the way the author introduces us to the complexities and contributions of preachers, both with whom we are already acquainted, and to whom we will be introduced here for the first time. Origen, Chrysostom, Augustine, Bernard, Aquinas, Luther, Calvin, Wesley, Edwards, Rauschenbusch, Barth; all of their distinctive contributions receive careful attention. Yet lesser-known figures and developments also appear, from the ninth-century reform of preaching championed by Hrabanus Maurus, to the reference books developed in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries by the mendicant orders to assist their members' preaching, to Howell Harris and Daniel Rowlands, preachers of the eighteenth-century Welsh revival, to Helen Kenyon, speaking as a layperson at the 1950 Yale Beecher lectures about the view of preaching from the pew. "...'This work is expected to be the standard text on preaching for the next 30 years,' says Ann K. Riggs, who staffs the NCC's Faith and Order Commission. Author Edwards, former professor of preaching at Seabury-Western Theological Seminary, is co-moderator of the commission, which studies church-uniting and church-dividing issues. 'A History of Preaching is ecumenical in scope and will be relevant in all our churches; we all participate in this field,' says Riggs...." from EcuLink, Number 65, Winter 2004-2005 published by the National Council of Churches
