Book Synopsis If a Sermon Falls in the Forest-- by : William Henry Shepherd
Download or read book If a Sermon Falls in the Forest-- written by William Henry Shepherd and published by CSS Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solidly grounded in contemporary biblical scholarship, this fascinating volume analyzes each of the major New Testament writers -- Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul -- and places their accounts of Jesus' resurrection in the broader context of their entire output. Shepherd carefully studies the literary, historical, theological, anthropological, and sociological dimensions that color each writer's unique view of the resurrection, and examines how these passages may be read in various interpretive communities. Each section also includes sample sermons that illustrate how a preacher might treat these texts for an actual congregation. This is an excellent resource for pastors, and an informative, easy-to-read manual for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of the New Testament.
Book Synopsis Without a Net by : William H Shepherd
Download or read book Without a Net written by William H Shepherd and published by CSS Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the idea of speaking without a manuscript in the pulpit make you feel like a trapeze artist trying to negotiate a high wire without a net? There you are, ly.balancing delicately in the stratosphere and holding on for dear life with nothing but you and your ballet shoes, wondering "Why, oh why, didn't I bring even a sliver of paper up here to catch me when I fall?" For many pastors, preaching without notes is a terrifying prospect -- yet reading verbatim from a manuscript prevents a sermon from being natural and spontaneous. This book shows how you can learn to preach freely without needing the net of written reminders, while still retaining full control over your material. It presents a concise and workable method for creating memorable sermons that connect with listeners. By focusing on delivery, Shepherd casts the entire sermon preparation process, including both study and composition, in a completely new light. Using this approach will make it easy to preach sermons without notes, because they were meant to be preached in the paperless pulpit. Featuring a user-friendly design, Without A Net is a convenient, instructive text for both beginning and experienced preachers. In addition to a complete system for constructing and delivering a sermon from start to finish, there's a brief outline of the entire process that allows you to quickly locate more details on specific topics. A concise "nutshell" summarizes each chapter's highlights, and there are plenty of pithy "hints and tips" to help you with the essential steps. Several sample sermons are also included so you can see how this approach actually works. Preaching without a net may seem like magic to congregations. But there's no real secret; the answer is right here in this book. With a little practice, one day they'll be asking you too, "How do you do that?" William H. Shepherd is an author, teacher, biblical scholar, and Episcopal priest who currently serves as an Interim Ministry Specialist in the Diocese of Connecticut. In addition to 19 years of experience in parish ministry, he has taught preaching and biblical studies at Candler School of Theology, Virginia Theological Seminary, George Mercer Memorial School of Theology, and Immaculate Conception Seminary. Shepherd's writing has appeared in Christian Century, Anglican Theological Review, Emphasis: A Preaching Journal for the Parish Pastor, and several other publications. He is a graduate of the University of Georgia, Yale Divinity School, and received his Ph.D. in New Testament studies from Emory University.

Book excerpt: Drawing on stories from the lives of the saints, scripture, and everyday life, Jim Forest opens up the mysteries of the Beatitudes. These ancient blessings, with which Christ began his Sermon on the Mount, are all aspects of communion with God. As Forest shows, they are like rungs on a ladder, each one leading to the next. They appear at the doorway of the New Testament to provide an easily memorized summary of everything that follows, right down to the crucifixion ("Blessed are you who are persecuted") and the resurrection ("Rejoice and be glad").

Book excerpt: Does the tree make a sound if it falls in the forest when there's no-one there to hear it? The answer maybe No! Your very attempt is the change the world needs - if ever discovered it may make the difference wanted. The following is a tale of that very attempt - to make music that "didn't make a sound" but then changed the world! Guglielmo Marconi the radio pioneer once said that "sound waves never die they just get weaker. If you could build a machine sensitive enough it could even hear the Sermon on the Mount. "Maybe the influence we have on the universe is total - if we have free will we each have the capacity to do unlimited good or irreparable harm!"

Book Synopsis Transformational Preaching by : David M. Brown
Download or read book Transformational Preaching written by David M. Brown and published by Virtualbookworm Publishing. This book was released on 2003-02 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transformational Preaching: Theory and practice is a comprehensive textbook for the beginning student of preaching, the graduate student in pulpit discourse, or the seasoned preacher. Seeking to reclaim the pulpit for biblical preaching, the book counteracts the popular "teaching" approach that is common today, and argues that preaching must be persuasive rather than informative, that the preacher is central to the act of preaching, and that through the preaching event, both preacher and listener together fashion the "message" and its meaning. Both theoretical and highly practical, the book offers a challenging look at all aspects of the preaching ministry. It contextualizes preaching in pastoral ministry and congregational worship, but, most significantly, argues that the practice of preaching must be informed and driven by theory. As such, the book draws from a wide perspective of disciplines, including biblical theology, classical rhetoric, contemporary human communication, public discourse, persuasion, linguistics, performance, and orality. The book's wealth of practical guidelines for every step of sermon development encourages students to apply general principles within their own contexts of ministry.
