Telling the Whole Story is both a book about preaching and reading
the narratives of the Hebrew Bible. John C. Holbert (PhD in Hebrew
Bible) was a longtime teacher of preaching and Hebrew Bible at
Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University, having
retired in 2012 after thirty-three years. In this volume he
combines his two skills of careful narrative reading and
imaginative story preaching to offer the first comprehensive look
at this particular kind of sermon proclamation. The reader will
also find here an introduction to the long history of story
preaching in the history of the church, as well as a primer both in
ways to read the narratives more effectively and ways to preach
several varieties of story sermons. At the heart of this book four
narratives from the Hebrew Bible are exegeted and are accompanied
by four story sermons based on those texts: Genesis 2-3; 1 Samuel
15; Judges 4; and Jonah. The goal of the book is to help preachers
who are looking for effective ways to proclaim the gospel using
narrative texts from the Hebrew Bible to allow the rich stories of
the texts to sound their ancient truth to the modern world
