Download or read book Sermons for a Modern World written by Emily Hotho and published by . This book was released on 2019-05 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have been a United Methodist pastor for 13 years. But only for the past six years have I been in a position that requires me to preach almost every single Sunday. My first appointment out of seminary was as an associate pastor of a large congregation with five clergy; I preached monthly if I was lucky. My next position was an administrative role on our Conference staff. And for the last six years, I have served as the pastor of Skycrest United Methodist Church, a vibrant mid-sized church in beautiful Clearwater, Florida. It is both easier and harder to preach week in and week out. It is easier, in that you don't feel the need to say everything; you know you'll get another opportunity next week. It is harder, in that it feels like every time you turn around, another Sunday is coming, and quickly!

Download or read book The Poetry of Faith written by Stephen F. Dill and published by NewSouth Books. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ministry of the Rev. Stephen F. Dill was forged in the turbulent civil rights years when he stood for social justice and spoke against racial segregation. In this collection of sermons -- many from his 20 years as pastor of Dauphin Way United Methodist Church in Mobile, Alabama -- Dill reflects on the implications of his faith for the lives of individuals and for the life of the world. Robin Wilson, one of Dill's successors at Dauphin Way, praises "the bold humility" of his message, and author Frye Gaillard, in the book's introduction, offers this description of Dill and his sermons: "Almost inevitably, the poetry of his preaching caught the quick of my imagination and quietly, inevitably made me think." Appropriately, the publication of The Poetry of Faith coincides with the 100th anniversary of Dauphin Way. But these challenging and reassuring sermons resonate far beyond those walls. As Methodist educator Gorman Houston put it, this is the Christian faith at its finest, for Stephen Dill has always been "one of those ministers . . . able to see the church as it should be and not as it was."

Download or read book Ministers and Masters written by Charity R. Carney and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2011-11-21 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ministers and Masters Charity R. Carney presents a thorough account of the way in which Methodist preachers constructed their own concept of masculinity within -- and at times in defiance of -- the constraints of southern honor culture of the early nineteenth century. By focusing on this unique subgroup of southern men, the book explores often-debated concepts like southern honor and patriarchy in a new way. Carney analyzes Methodist preachers both involved with and separate from mainstream southern society, and notes whether they served as itinerants -- venturing into rural towns -- or remained in city churches to witness to an urban population. Either way, they looked, spoke, and acted like outsiders, refusing to drink, swear, dance, duel, or even dress like other white southern men. Creating a separate space in which to minister to southern men, women, and children, oftentimes converting a dancehall floor into a pulpit, they raised the ire of non- Methodists around them. Carney shows how understanding these distinct and often defiant stances provides an invaluable window into antebellum society and also the variety of masculinity standards within that culture. In Ministers and Masters, Carney uses ministers' stories to elucidate notions of secular sinfulness and heroic Methodist leadership, explores contradictory ideas of spiritual equality and racial hierarchy, and builds a complex narrative that shows how numerous ministers both rejected and adopted concepts of southern mastery. Torn between convention and conviction, Methodist preachers created one of the many "Souths" that existed in the nineteenth century and added another dimension to the well-documented culture of antebellum society.

Download or read book To Preach the Truth written by Schubert M. Ogden and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: But will it preach? The only good answer to this question often asked about a Christian theology is to preach it, which is to say, to preach according to it, to what it indicates, reflectively and critically, valid Christian preaching ought to be. This volume of selected sermons and homilies documents a career-long attempt to do exactly that. Concerned at once to be faithful to the Christian witness and to speak intelligibly and credibly to women and men here and now, it represents the way of preaching, and so directly calling for a Christian commitment, that is of a piece with the distinctive way of doing Christian theology set forth and argued for in Schubert Ogden's other books and articles. This is why each sermon or homily seeks so to interpret its scriptural text as to bring out its existential meaning for understanding ourselves and leading our lives as human beings today. It is also why each of them, in its way, directly puts the question of decision raised by Christian faith. Thus, together with its companion volume, To Teach the Truth, this book offers a model for bearing witness to the truth as Christians understand it.
