Book Synopsis Preaching Metaphor by : Justin Paul Rossow
Download or read book Preaching Metaphor written by Justin Paul Rossow and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will bring you joy. Preaching week in and week out can be a burden. This book invites you into a way of experiencing preaching that brings life back into your pulpit. Contemporary metaphor theory provides new methods for engaging the biblical text and shaping sermons that matter. With humor and insight, Justin Rossow harnesses the most relevant advances in metaphor theory to empower your preaching and equip you to impact the everyday lives of real people. You'll be delighted at the quality of the example sermons and anxious to put these tools to work in your own preaching ministry. This book is not about making your propositional point a little more interesting; this book will change how you imagine the preaching task. Refreshingly faithful, theoretically nuanced, purposefully practical, and at times laugh out loud funny, Preaching Metaphor will help you fall in love with preaching all over again. Praise for Preaching Metaphor "A pioneering and incredible piece of work. Rossow's treatment of metaphor and culture is not only enjoyable, it makes you wonder how often we fill in the blanks of biblical images with our own cultural narratives without giving it a second much less passing thought. I know of no other work that offers such a well-developed theory of metaphor for preaching." -Len Sweet best-selling author, professor, and owner of PreachTheStory.com "Remarkably clear, winsome, compelling, and practical. This book is not only a must for the preacher's library, but a gift to the preacher." -Leopoldo A. Sánchez M. author of Sculptor Spirit: Models of Sanctification from Spirit Christology and professor of Systematic Theology at Concordia Seminary-St. Louis "In an era when images saturate our existence and capture our attention, Justin Rossow provides what a visual generation needs: a way to create compelling sermons that stick-for both the preacher and the hearer. In a humble, winsome, and knowledgeable way, Preaching Metaphor presents the practice of harnessing imagery as a means of communicating Gospel truth. You'll find this to be a practical manual for powerful preaching!" -Michael W. Newman, author of Gospel DNA: Five Markers of a Flourishing Church "Every once in a while, I've read things that make me wonder how they're possible, and I really thank God for letting me read them. This book is one of those. Praise God for Justin." -Conrad Gempf author of Jesus Asked: What He Wanted to Know and lecturer in New Testament at London School of Theology, UK. From the introduction: "I just want to help make next Sunday a little easier for you and for your hearers. And maybe, if things go as planned, I might even help you delight in the preaching task a little more than you have in awhile. You see, I am on your side; I think what you do week in and week out is amazing. And I want to help. In order to help, I want to talk about metaphor. I know, I know; talking about metaphor sounds all artistic and poetic-and it can be-but, as we shall see, metaphor is also a fundamental tool for how we make sense of our lives, reach decisions, imagine possibilities, and evaluate outcomes. Because metaphor is a fundamental tool of human thought and experience, getting a better handle on metaphor opens up all kinds of possibilities for reading and preaching Scripture."
Book Synopsis Take Up and Preach by : Blayne A. Banting
Download or read book Take Up and Preach written by Blayne A. Banting and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speaking clearly and generously from an evangelical perspective, Blayne Banting has written a thoughtful, and thought-provoking book on biblical preaching. The sections on textual analysis and interpretation are deeply refreshing and worth the price of the book alone. Thomas G. Long, Ph.D. Bandy Professor of Preaching Candler School of Theology Emory University Blayne Banting has provided a needed, focused treatment of the foundational segment of the preaching task. He has insightfully explored the movement from text to sermon outline. With a concise treatment of the motives and theology of preaching, he has helpfully clarified the movement from the biblical text to the sermon focus (dominant thought) and structure. He concludes with two valuable appendices (sermon forms and textual forms). Chuck Sackett, D.Min. Past-President of the Evangelical Homiletics Society Having joyfully worked alongside Dr. Banting as a colleague, having sat under his faithful preaching, and now having read his engaging homiletic primer, I can testify that Take Up and Read offers a welcome balance on both the theology and practice of preaching. Banting's creative appropriation of the "Bridge" metaphor keeps both biblical and contemporary contexts firmly in mind during the preparation of the sermon. I can only hope that many copies of this book will eventually become dog-eared from continual use and find their place of honor on the desks of many aspiring and experienced preachers alike. David Guretzki, Ph.D. Dean of the Seminary, Associate Professor of Theology Briercrest College and Seminary Blayne Banting, D.Min., Ph.D. is pastor of Caronport Community Church in Caronport, SK as well as an adjunct professor at Briercrest College and Seminary. Dr. Banting is married to Peggy and they have four children.
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.
Book Synopsis Portraits of God by : Allan Coppedge
Download or read book Portraits of God written by Allan Coppedge and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-09-20 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is God like? Answering this is the great quest of human existence. Because God is so different from us, we struggle to describe him. While doctrinal statements about God certainly have their place in Christian understanding, the Bible more often uses God's actions and roles to help us know him better. Indeed, some of the most helpful insights in Scripture arise when God is compared to something else: a rock, an eagle or a tower. And many "human" metaphors--metaphors taken from the world of actions and relationships--bring us even closer to understanding of God. In Portraits of God, Allan Coppedge suggests we look carefully at God as our Father, Redeemer, King, Judge, Priest and Creator. These portraits taken together give us an understaning of the Holy One for which no single category is adequate. These images work their way through the whole of Scripture. They are the doorway allowing us into the mysteries of God's very being. In Portraits of God, Coppedge offers a comprehensive survey, picturing a God who wants to be known personally and who has profoundly communicated himself. Coppedge finds the inexhaustible nature of God to be one of holiness reflected in and best described by the language of diverse roles. Approaching God in this way transforms us, as churches and individuals, to reflect God's own holy character. This is a book for students, pastors and churchgoers alike. Anyone desiring to know more deeply and wholly the Christian God revealed in the Bible will find in Portraits of God a treasure of scholarship and truth.
Book Synopsis The Witness of Preaching, Third Edition by : Thomas G. Long
Download or read book The Witness of Preaching, Third Edition written by Thomas G. Long and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2016-10-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a newly revised edition of one of the standard introductory preaching textbooks on the market today. Beginning with a solid theological basis, veteran preacher and best-selling author Thomas G. Long offers a practical, step-by-step guide to writing a sermon. Long centers his approach around the biblical concept of witness. To be a preacher, Long posits, is to be a witness to God's work in the worldone who sees before speaking, one whose task is to "tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth about what is seen." This updated edition freshens up language and anecdotes, contains an extensive new analysis of the use of multimedia and its impact on preaching, and adds a completely new chapter on plagiarism in preaching. Included for the first time are four complete sermons, with Long's commentary and analysis. The sermons were written and originally preached by Barbara Brown Taylor, Cleophus J. LaRue. Ginger Gaines-Cirelli, and Edmund Steimle. With this third edition, The Witness of Preaching reaffirms itself as the essential resource for seminary students as well as new and experienced preachers.
Book Synopsis Out Of The Shadows And Into The Light by : W.J. Thomas III
Download or read book Out Of The Shadows And Into The Light written by W.J. Thomas III and published by Elm Hill. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses the study of types and shadows to decipher the events of the larger Exodus story (slavery through the Promised Land). The material will lead the reader out of the shadows of the Old Testament into the light of the New Testament fulfillments. The purpose of this material is to challenge the reader’s understanding of the way these events have traditionally been interpreted. Alternate interpretations will be presented with accompanying reasons and scriptures. The chapters are intended to take snapshots of the six major events comprising the Exodus. They will be organized according to the following headings. The Journey out of Bondage will encompass chapters 1-3, slavery in Egypt, the establishment of the Passover, and crossing the Red Sea; The Journey in the Wilderness contains only one chapter, 4; and The Journey into Promise will complete our investigation of the Exodus story by viewing the last two events, crossing the Jordan River and entering the Promised land, chapters 5 and 6 respectively. Some chapters need an additional explanation on a particular point; an excursus is provided to promote clarity. At the end of each chapter is a Discipleship Challenge with which the reader is asked to personally apply the principles presented. A study guide is also provided for those who wish to use this material in a small/cell/life group atmosphere.
Book Synopsis Mastering the Discipline of Bible Study by : Jenai J. Rasmussen Ed.D.
Download or read book Mastering the Discipline of Bible Study written by Jenai J. Rasmussen Ed.D. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-07-22 with total page 1543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work, along with the other volumes in the Foundational Knowledge of the Bible series, can help those who are young in the faith to seek a Christian relationship with God. All who choose to enter into the new covenant must concurrently embrace a new perceptual field. By heeding God’s call to service, believers embark upon a Christian journey to become wise from the application of spiritual knowledge. This is made possible with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit who guides covenant believers in the faithful word of God, which is the source of all spiritual truth in this world. The intended purpose presented in this plan of action is to speak the truth of God in love so that the brethren can learn godly discernment, be equipped with sound doctrine, and grow together in all things according to Christ’s authoritative leadership (Eph. 4:15). By becoming covenant Christians set apart by God for his particular use, we can be diligent by precisely and accurately handling the word of truth (2 Tim. 2:15). This series can serve to edify and ground those who are new in the faith because the revelation of God provides all the essential answers to life’s pressing spiritual questions, whether general or specific. Accordingly, Christ’s disciples need to comprehend the questions before the answers can have real meaning. No greater reason can be given for studying the Bible. Therefore, the people of God are duty-bound to master this Christian discipline. The first volume in this series is divided into three phases of Bible study: “Why” addresses the importance of knowing God’s word, study motivations, conditions for discipleship, Christian distinctions, and the attributes needed to study biblical truth. “How” covers preliminary actions, Bible versions, principles, study considerations, and necessary skills. “What” offers a unique sevenfold framework for understanding the Bible. Divine power can move the Scriptures to be more than words on a page. It can become a life-changing force for good in the world. To that end, this resource directs the reader on how to inquire, search, and ask diligently concerning godly truth. Invaluable information, accessible resources, clear educational materials, and deep biblical insights will all quickly serve to establish beginning students in the Sacred Text. This work will also prepare the reader to receive the Scriptures by learning how to obtain a faithful accounting of spiritual truth. To be sure, wisdom is the result of applying biblical knowledge to our lives. By speaking divine truth in love, believers can grow together in Christ as fellow workers who labor in the word of God. There is no greater work in this world than to share this life-saving truth with others. The obligation of receiving divine knowledge requires that it be shared. Truly, giving the hope and joy that is found in Jesus Christ, and the message he brought from the Father, is the greatest privilege of a human life. Amen, and amen.

This book was released on 2000-06-26 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Download or read book Metaphor written by and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the present bibliography is to provide the student of metaphor with an up-to-date and comprehensive (albeit not exhaustive) overview of recent publications dealing with various aspects of metaphor in a variety of disciplines. Where the emphasis is primarily on specific works about metaphor, mainly in philosophy, linguistics, and psychology, the list has been supplemented with references to studies where metaphor is explicitly recognized as an instrument of research or analysis (e.g., in literature, or in the elaboration of scientific and religious models) or where its use is illustrated.
