Book Synopsis Introducing the Uncommon Lectionary by : Thomas G. Bandy
Download or read book Introducing the Uncommon Lectionary written by Thomas G. Bandy and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lays out the plan for a collection of readings from Scripture designed for the needs of seekers and the unchurched. The church has used lectionaries–lists of scriptures to be read on particular Sundays throughout the year–across its long history. Yet most lectionaries are inward-looking: they presuppose hearers who are familiar with the biblical story and accustomed to gearing their lives around the Christian year. Yet in the increasingly pagan world of North America, the church’s task is to reach out to those who are spiritually hungry, yet unfamiliar with the Christian story. In this important new work Tom Bandy has given those who plan and lead worship a new lectionary, specifically geared to the needs of seekers. He lays out a plan for a trip through the central biblical narratives, the purpose of which is to provide seekers with a basic understanding of the gospel, and to call disciples to a deeper experience of Christian faith.

Book Synopsis The Revised Uncommon Lectionary by : Ben Christian
Download or read book The Revised Uncommon Lectionary written by Ben Christian and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-15 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The irreverent Bible nerds who brought you the party game A Game for Good Christians, have finally followed through on their threat...promise to write a book! The Revised UNCOMMON Lectionary is here! Like A Game for Good Christians, The Revised UNCOMMON Lectionary doesn't mince words about the Bible's thoughts on "wet dreams" (Deuteronomy 23:10), "Pulling out of your sister-in-law" (Genesis 38:8-9), or "The Bible's odd silence about Necrophilia." It doesn't dance around the genocide that dominates so much the Holy Book, like "God holding your enemies' heads under the water until the bubbles stop" (Exodus 15:1-12; 19), or "A pair of she-bears mauling a class of kindergartners" (2 Kings 2:23-25). It doesn't look away from "Miriam cursed for being racist" (Numbers 12) or "Bread freshly baked with human dung" (Ezekiel 4:12). Composed with the belief that a good Christian doesn't romanticize or ignore the uncomfortable parts of the Bible, this book journeys through the liturgical year with a reading for each Sunday and the myriad holy-days (e.g. Good Friday, Ascension Day, Pentecost, etc.). The Revised UNCOMMON Lectionary delves into the profound, comical, bizarre, and sobering moments of the Bible with the thoughtfulness of Andrew, the wit of Elijah, the impulsivity of Peter (the ADHD apostle), and the scholarship of whoever really wrote the Epistle to the Hebrews (because it wasn't Paul).

Many people come to church seeking inspiration, help for personal problems, or faith's perspective on life. They come seeking things you cannot find in a search engine. The church has exactly what they need, but too often there is a gap between our message and our ability to send it. Each week, as people pause to learn about faith and get a word of hope, a lot rides on the sermon. Susan Cartmell took a journey across the country to visit churches with great preaching and lively worship. What she discovered was that Evangelical Christians and Unitarian Universalists were using themed preaching effectively to attract new members. Working in her church over the last five years, she has designed a new system for preaching with themes in mainline Protestant churches. She shares her method and her journey in a story that invites you to consider new ways to preach faithfully without using the lectionary.
