Book Synopsis The Collected Sermons of David Bartlett by : David L. Bartlett
Download or read book The Collected Sermons of David Bartlett written by David L. Bartlett and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of fifty-two sermons shows beloved New Testament scholar David Bartlett at his best. Bartlett, who died in 2017, spent his career teaching and mentoring preachers at The University of Chicago Divinity School, Yale Divinity School, Union Presbyterian Seminary, and Columbia Theological Seminary, as well as serving as a pastor in American Baptist churches. Thus, he has generations of friends and former students who knew him for his quick wit, passion for justice, and deep knowledge of the Bible. Those traits show through in these sermons. As Nora Tisdale says in the foreword: All of the sermons in this volume give witness to Davids passion for preaching that is solidly grounded in the biblical text. Most of them actually begin, as Karl Barth urged preachers to begin, with the biblical text. If they dont begin there, they always get there fairly quickly. And Davids interpretations of texts often surprise the reader with their freshness and clarity. In addition to individual sermons, several multiweek sermon series, including a series on Who Is Jesus? and Great Words of the Faith, are included.

Download or read book God Is in the House written by John Woods and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good preaching is not simply a matter of communicating the gospel message. Rather, it is an invitation to encounter the living God who dwells within that message. Distilling forty years of preaching experience into a single book, God Is in the House is a highly practical tool for all those seeking to strengthen their preaching ministry. It draws on Scripture’s many images of God as architect and builder to guide its readers through the process of shaping effective sermons. Both manifesto and manual, it addresses the overall role and significance of preaching, while also exploring the specific elements a sermon should contain. Full-length examples are included for illustration, and each chapter has practical exercises to aid the reader in integrating new tools into their homiletic practice. This book offers a fresh and imaginative model for thinking about the process of designing and delivering sermons. It is an excellent resource for both experienced and developing preachers.

Book Synopsis Preaching Christ from Psalms by : Sidney Greidanus
Download or read book Preaching Christ from Psalms written by Sidney Greidanus and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this penultimate volume of his series on preaching Christ from the Old Testament, Sidney Greidanus offers expert guidance for busy pastors on preaching Christ from Psalms. Beginning with a general introduction on how pastors can interpret and preach from the biblical psalms — and why they should — Greidanus proceeds by discussing twenty-two psalms in the Revised Common Lectionary, Year A, supplying the building blocks necessary to preach from Psalms at Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, and other major days and seasons of the church year. In addition to laying out basic homiletical-theological approaches suitable for each selected psalm, these chapters also provide verse-by-verse exposition, bridges to Christ in the New Testament, and ideas for placing the psalmist’s words into contemporary context.
Book Synopsis The New Interpreter's Handbook of Preaching by :
Download or read book The New Interpreter's Handbook of Preaching written by and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Interpreter’s Handbook of Preaching is a major reference tool for preaching, with articles on every facet of Christian sermon preparation and delivery. This resource is both scholarly and practical. It focuses on the most distinctive feature and greatest strength of homiletics as a discipline: It is rooted in interdisciplinary scholarship and it develops theory geared to practice. Its theory arises out of the study of both excellent preaching past and present and actual sermon preparation and composition. When theory and practice critique each other, it is possible to produce guidelines that assist greater excellence and economy in preaching the gospel. Excellence in standards is an area in which homiletics needs to grow, and this project will be both a means to encourage and develop it. A guiding question throughout will be, Will it preach? The answers will be offered in the sense that “here is something that works well,” rather than “here is something to try.” Preachers will turn to this resource with the expectation that they will find scholarly treatment of topics, brief bibliographies of relevant key books and articles, along with practical methodological suggestions for preachers to employ. The contributors are homileticians, preachers, and writers in various disciplines who are committed to the pulpit through practice.
Book Synopsis Preaching Like Paul by : James W. Thompson
Download or read book Preaching Like Paul written by James W. Thompson and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast with the widely popular interest in narrative styles, Professor Thompson believes Paul's letters offer a different and valid model for preaching today. He clearly demonstrates how the manner of preaching used in the pre-Christian culture of Paul is both appropriate and effective in our contemporary post-Christian culture. Unlike most books on preaching, this book does not focus on homiletic technique, but on the goal of preaching - a needed missing component in contemporary homiletic discussion.

Astute preacher Leonora Tisdale considers these vexing questions while providing guidance and encouragement to pastors who want to recommit themselves to the task of prophetic witness. With a keen sensitivity to pastoral contexts, Tisdale's work is full of helpful suggestions and examples to help pastors structure and preach prophetic sermons, considered by many to be one of the most difficult tasks pastors are called to undertake.
Book Synopsis Sermons from New Hope by : Kerri Mock Hefner
Download or read book Sermons from New Hope written by Kerri Mock Hefner and published by . This book was released on 2019-11 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was surprised and honored to receive an invitation to publish a collection of sermons. In assembling this collection of sermons, I realized a lot of my sermons have the same basic theme. Don't be afraid - bloom where you're planted - you've got this. I want to encourage listeners, not simply so they will feel better, but so they will find their way to active participation in God's good works. Many of my preaching mentors encouraged me to "keep it simple." Bill Neely and Wanda Neely encouraged me to preach without notes, a method which makes the preacher keep to just a few key points. Kermit Dancy told me all sermon topics could be counted on one hand: God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, sin/forgiveness, and the church. David Bartlett challenged everyone in his preaching class to make sure there is Good News in each sermon. Steve Hayner asked me to look for what Christ is doing in the world, and to follow with words and actions. So many women mentors have encouraged me and bolstered my resolve during almost twenty years of ordained ministry. I am thankful beyond words for Cherrie Henry, Carter Shelley, Susan Fricks, Carol Gregg, Susan Dunlap, and Wanda Neely, among many others. In these times in which many of us feel stretched thin and stressed out, I hope the message of these sermons will provide encouragement to keep on going. Don't be afraid - bloom where you're planted - you've got this. God has called us to good work. May we respond to that call in faith, love, and hope.

Download or read book A Serious House written by Martin Camroux and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The church is in deep trouble, maybe in its death throes. Losing touch with the church has meant a break with the Western cultural past, its history, its music, its art, its literature, much of which cannot fully be understood without its religious heritage. But something more important than any of that is in danger of being lost. The church is a deeply imperfect and frustrating organization, but within it, community is experienced, values are nurtured, and God’s presence in the world is embodied in a people. The church carries the story of Jesus; it tells the story of who we are, it calls us to give away our lives to others and to find love as life’s central meaning. We have crossed a cultural divide. Before, if you did not hold traditional religious beliefs and belong to a church you felt obliged to explain yourself. Now the pressure is to explain why you do. This is my answer.
