Synopsis: A Man, A Woman, A Word of Love is a new collection of
sermons by two of the finest preachers in the Episcopal Church
today. They also happen to be married to each other. Beautifully
written, compassionate, theologically astute, and oftentimes very
funny, these sermons provide fresh insight into the inexhaustible
riches of God's Word. Following the unfolding story of God's love
in Scripture and tradition, Pagano and Richter lift up different
dimensions of God's love celebrated in the different seasons of the
church year. Informed by the pastoral sensitivity that comes from
years of serving congregations, the wisdom that comes from years of
study, and the grace and wit that comes from years of marriage,
Pagano and Richter offer powerful sermons that glory in the
reconciling love of God and invite us into the ongoing adventure of
being known, redeemed, and transformed by that love. These are
sermons for everyone who wants to know and love the God who already
knows and loves each and every one of us. Endorsements: "Joe and
Amy's sermons are a gift to the church; they are a joy to read and
hear. Like the very best short stories, their sermons are
beautifully constructed, but so infused with warmth, wit, and
wisdom that we are carried away by the narrative. They offer
something for everyone: gentle humor, scholarly observations,
penetrating insights, and often goose bumps--leading us into
discovery about our call as Christians." --Sarah Johnson, Writer
and Editor, Sermons that Work, The Episcopal Church "Engaging
Scripture and the liturgical seasons to trace the movement of love
and desire, Joe Pagano and Amy Richter give us personal,
theological reflections in the form of sermons to propel the
imagination of preachers and nurture all in the journey into God.
They know how to tell a story, play with an image, detail matters
of faith, shape a prayer, and proclaim the presence of God. This is
no collection of sermons, but a well-crafted apologia." --Timothy
F. Sedgwick, Vice President for Academic Affairs and Professor of
Christian Ethics, Virginia Theological Seminary "I invite you to
read this book It is a treasure trove of exquisite jewels and
precious metals, each shining through with the life and love of
God. Creative, intimate, at times funny, deeply grounded in
Scripture, and above all, loving." --Mary D. Glasspool, Bishop
