Comprising the sermons preached by William Sloane Coffin while
he was senior minister at the prestigious Riverside Church in New
York City, "The Collected Sermons of William Sloane Coffin: The
Riverside Years " captures the renowned preacher and social
activist at work: ministering to American hostages in Iran,
supporting AIDS awareness, and rallying his audiences to battle
poverty and nuclear proliferation--all the while celebrating
marriages, baptisms, and Mother's Days and mourning the loss of
loved ones, including his own son.
In each of these brilliant and painstakingly crafted sermons,
Coffin combined his deep love of Scripture and passionate
commitment to peace and justice with his unparalleled gift for the
spoken word. While also revealing the personal and pastoral
dimensions of his ministry, each sermon provides a powerful example
of Coffin's well-accomplished mission: to challenge the conscience
of a nation.
