Preaching has fallen on hard times with many questioning its
relevance and even its validity as a New Testament practice. This
symposium of specially commissioned essays draws together an
international team of thirteen scholars and pastors to address the
importance of textual preaching in the history and life of the
early church, the historic church, and the contemporary church.
Contributions include essays on Old Testament preaching; preaching
in Eastern Orthodoxy; gender-sensitive preaching; and preaching in
the theology of Jonathan Edwards, Charles Spurgeon and Dietrich
Bonhoeffer. It also includes essays on a range of homiletical
challenges that textual preaching raises for the contemporary
preacher, including genre, preaching without notes, inhabiting the
text, and preaching without platitudes. A final reflection by Dave
Hansen on the state of textual preaching rounds out the collection.
The preaching of the gospel stands at the heart of Christian
praxis. These essays make a vital contribution to the recovery of
the importance of preaching, focused on the text of Scripture.
Written with an eye to the pastor and practitioner as well as those
in the pews and in the classroom, this is a book that is appealing
to a wide range of readers.
