To Preach or Not to Preach? questions one of the scared cows in the
modern church, namely the sermon, and the preeminence it s given.
Norrington s premise is not built on novelty or questioning just to
question. He goes back to the New Testament and shows that there is
no evidence for a a regular weekly sermon that believers are to
lean upon, and the whole church experience is to be wrapped around.
This book also shows how the sermon as it has come to be practiced
supplants the one-another ministries of everyday believers, and
stifles the expression of Christ in the ekklesia. To Preach was
originally published in Britain by Paternoster Press in 1996.It had
virtually no circulation in the States. Norrington died in 2007,
and his book nearly passed into oblivion. However, several
supporters banded together to reoffer this work. And with it, a
large additional section was added where Norrington responds to
reviews of his book. To Preach is a well-documented study that will
challenge traditional ideas, restore hope and function in the body
of Christ, and help us understand that "preaching" in the NT was
primarily a vital evangelistic activity directed toward
unbelievers.
