Download or read book Alive to the Word written by Stephen Wright and published by Hymns Ancient and Modern Ltd. This book was released on 2010 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alive to the Word examines the Christian practice of preaching using a four-stage model of theological reflection. First it describes the practice, from historical and contemporary angles. Its human characteristics û linguistic, rhetorical, sociological and psychological û are then selectively analysed. The book then sets preaching as a human event in theological perspective, via the biblical narrative, theological categories, ethical imperatives and traditional patterns which give it its distinctive Christian character. Finally, implications are drawn out for the contemporary practice of preaching in and by the Church, and for the rhythm and decisions of an individual preacher. At the end of each Chapter, as well as a concise Further Reading list, there are questions for the local church which act as prompts for reflection on its preaching ministry. There are also suggestions for further research which, it is hoped, will prompt additional empirical and theological study of the often-neglected topic of preaching.
