Book Synopsis Crossover Preaching by : Jared E. Alcántara
Download or read book Crossover Preaching written by Jared E. Alcántara and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2015-10-08 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As society becomes more culturally diverse and globally connected, churches and seminaries are rapidly changing. And as the church changes, preaching must change too. Crossover Preaching proposes a way forward through conversation with the "dean of the nation?s black preachers," Gardner C. Taylor, senior pastor emeritus of Concord Baptist Church in Brooklyn, New York. In this richly interdisciplinary study, Jared E. Alcántara argues that an analysis of Taylor?s preaching reveals an improvisational-intercultural approach that recovers his contemporary significance and equips U. S. churches and seminary classrooms for the future. Alcántara argues that preachers and homileticians need to develop intercultural and improvisational proficiencies to reach an increasingly intercultural church. Crossover Preaching equips them with concrete practices designed to help them cultivate these competencies and thus communicate effectively in a changing world.
Book Synopsis Becoming An Effective Preacher in a Cross-Cultural Setting by : Listowel Ayensu-Mensah
Download or read book Becoming An Effective Preacher in a Cross-Cultural Setting written by Listowel Ayensu-Mensah and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ in the Gospel according to Matthew calls for the church to recognize and accept the fact that doing ministry invariably involves and traverses many and various boundaries. The one called to lead any part of the church will surely be involved in preaching and teaching, as stated in the said commission. As Paul stated, ". . . Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved." How can the one sent to serve the church serve the purpose of the call if one cannot successfully communicate with one's audience simply because of cultural differences? The need to be effective in a new and different cultural environment cannot be overemphasized. Listowel tells his story, outlining the journey in this cross-cultural ministry as an encouragement and guide for all in ministry, since the world has become a global village. Moreover, we never know where the call might take us.

Download or read book An Intercultural Church for a Multicultural World written by Martyn Snow and published by Canterbury Press. This book was released on 2024-03-07 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the Church of England’s central aims is that it should become more diverse. This book is a contribution to the debate on how the church nationally and locally might better represent the cultural diversity of the communities which it is called to serve. Originating from the experiences of one of the most multicultural dioceses in the country, it offers a series of reflections that will enable readers to consider how they might think and act with greater cultural sensitivity in their contexts. Central to the book is the theme of gift exchange. All of life is celebrated as gift where we experience diversity, the other, hospitality and God as gifts. It explores the possibilities of intercultural gift exchange in the practices of generous giving, radical receptivity and transformative thanksgiving.
Book Synopsis Preaching in the Sunday Assembly by : James A. Wallace
Download or read book Preaching in the Sunday Assembly written by James A. Wallace and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What should preachers aim for in Sunday preaching? In 1982, the USCCB document Fulfilled in Your Hearing: The Homily in the Sunday Assembly answered this question. Here, in a pastoral commentary on Fulfilled in Your Hearing, several Catholic scholars in homiletics, liturgy, and biblical studies both appreciate the abiding insights of Fulfilled in Your Hearing and also propose areas for continuing reflection. Following the four sections of the Bishops' document??The Assembly, The Preacher, The Homily, and Homiletic Method??this commentary emphasizes the document??s continuing importance for the initial and ongoing formation of Catholic liturgical preachers, while also inviting conversation about present-day cross-cultural, liturgical, and communication concerns for Catholic preaching. Priests, deacons, seminarians, bishops, and al others engaged in the preaching task are invited to deepen their appreciation of the homily's unique role in the liturgical life of the church and to stir their enthusiasm for preaching and preaching preparation. James A. Wallace, CSsR, is professor of homiletics at Washington Theological Union, Washington DC. He is author of Preaching to the Hungers of the Heart: The Homily on the Feasts and within the Rites and The Ministry of Lectors (Liturgical Press), and coauthor of Lift Up Your Hearts, Homilies for the A, B, and C Cycles (Paulist Press).
Book Synopsis Preaching without Borders by : Ryan Roach
Download or read book Preaching without Borders written by Ryan Roach and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-09-08 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though the United States has been a relatively diverse nation, Americans have historically lived close to those who are ethnically and culturally like them. The unfortunate effects of slavery, Jim Crow, segregation, housing discrimination, prejudice, and bigotry have been key reasons for demographic divisions. While divisions remain, communities that were once monoethnic are experiencing changes that are enriching. The challenge for these communities is to work to break down barriers that prevent lasting authentic relationships resulting in spiritual growth. Churches in these communities are at a crossroads and face a choice: do they keep doing what is comfortable despite the changes in their neighborhoods, or do they work to resemble their neighbors? Preaching Without Borders addresses the challenges preachers face when they attempt to be faithful to the text while contextualizing it so that people of every nation, tribe, and tongue can be transformed Jesus.
Book Synopsis Preaching to Every Pew by : James R. Nieman
Download or read book Preaching to Every Pew written by James R. Nieman and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing cultural diversity of American society is mirrored in the pews and parishes of mainline denominations and represents a dynamic challenge to the effective proclamation of the gospel on Sunday mornings. Preaching to Every Pew, based on extensive field research, takes on the challenge of preaching in such a context. The authors map an approach to culture from four significant perspectives: ethnicity, class, displacement, and religious beliefs. They describe the significant ways in which culture influences human beings, detail how cultural influences affect and complicate communication in general and preaching in particular, and then recommend practical strategies for improving communication in culturally diverse settings. --From publisher's description.
Book Synopsis Communication in Mission by : Marcus Dean
Download or read book Communication in Mission written by Marcus Dean and published by William Carey Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-07 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communicating the Gospel—To All People, By All Means Communication has always been the heartbeat of God’s interaction with humankind, and without thoughtful communication, mission is not fully effective. With the rise of technology and social media, the church faces a unique set of opportunities. At the same time, our shrinking world presents challenges and requires an increased sensitivity to social, cultural, and geopolitical triggers. With case studies that span the globe from Australia and Asia to the Black church and Muslim youth diaspora in the United States, this book closely considers what is working in the twenty-first century and what isn’t. From post-colonial contexts to creative-access countries, this collection doesn’t shy away from today’s complex issues. Communication in Mission pulls together diverse voices—some seem like shouts and others like gentle whispers—but each has an important contribution for all who will listen and learn. This synthesis of personal experiences from field practitioners and theoretical concepts from scholars lays a foundation for application, calling for careful and intentional communication in the ongoing work of missions. Full of hope, this book looks forward to the gospel being received as Good News around the globe.

Book Synopsis Postcolonial Preaching by : HyeRan Kim-Cragg
Download or read book Postcolonial Preaching written by HyeRan Kim-Cragg and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2021-02-11 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Postcolonial Preaching, HyeRan Kim-Cragg argues that preaching is the act of dropping the stone of the Gospel into a lake, making waves to move hearts and transform the world wounded by colonial violence. The ripple effect serves as a metaphor and acronym to guide to preaching that takes postcolonial concerns seriously: Rehearsal, Imagination, Place, Pattern, Language and Exegesis (RIPPLE). Kim-Cragg explains each “ripple” in this approach and exercise of creating and delivering sermons. The author delivers fresh insights while drawing on some traditional homiletical perspectives in the service of a homiletic that takes the reality of racism, migration, and environmental degradation seriously. Moreover, Kim-Cragg demonstrates the postcolonial sermon in action by including annotated homilies. This book contributes to the very first wave of the application of postcolonial scholarship in preaching. Given the continuing extent and influence of colonial worldviews and legacies, this approach should become a staple in preaching over the next generation.
