How to Preach the Miracles - Why People Don't Believe Them and What You Can Do about It: Cycle A (Paperback)

Because modern culture explains the world through scientific rationalism, many in our pews are skeptical about miracles -- and those who do speak of miracles are often seen as purveyors of superstition and magical thinking. So what can the preacher do when discussing the resurrection and the other miracles recorded in scripture? Through a combination of rich biblical commentary and accounts of contemporary miracles, this book demonstrates that the answer is to tell stories of the mysterious, saving presence of God -- the realm in which Jesus did his miracle work. Sumwalt brings a storyteller's perspective to nine miracle passages from Cycle A of the Revised Common Lectionary.
