Book excerpt: This scholarly book is the final result of a team-research project, done by ten Practical Theologians from three denominations in the Reformed tradition in South Africa. The authors posed the following research problem and-question: What would be the relationship (if any) between preaching (and the liturgy of which it is a part) and the development of missional congregations? And secondly, what kind of preaching and preacher would best serve (even facilitate) such a process of missional congregational development in preaching and worship?

Download or read book Preachers Dare written by Bishop William H. Willimon and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preachers Dare is adapted from Will Willimon’s Lyman Beecher Lectures on Preaching at Yale and is inspired by a quote from the great theologian Karl Barth. In a world in which sermons too often become hackneyed conventional wisdom or tame common sense, preachers dare to speak about the God who speaks to us as Jesus Christ. Willimon draws upon his decades of preaching, as well as his many books on the practice of homiletics, to present a bold theology of preaching. This work emphasizes preaching as a distinctively theological endeavor that begins with and is enabled by God. God speaks, preachers dare to speak the speech of God, and the church dares to listen. By moving from the biblical text to the contemporary context, preachers dare to speak up for God so that God might speak today. With fresh biblical insights, creativity and pointed humor, Willimon gives today’s preachers and congregations encouragement to speak with the God who has so graciously and effusively spoken to us.

Download or read book Preaching the Parables written by Richard Louie Sheffield and published by CSS Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Sheffield preaches and writes with clarity and conviction. He has a rare gift of interpreting parables so they are accessible to his audience while retaining their heavenly truth for our lives. He has a heart for God, and that comes through in this book. Rev. David E. Gray Former Acting Assistant Secretary, U.S. Department of Labor Presbyterian Chaplain, American University When Richard Sheffield sang "I Love to Tell the Story" as a child, he never dreamed that he would end up telling that age-old story for his life's work. Yet "telling the story" is a vital form of communication for preachers and the most effective way to reach audiences with God's powerful plan of salvation. People love to hear stories, sing about stories, and tell stories -- but above all, they remember stories! Jesus knew this; indeed, he was a master storyteller himself. Jesus' most powerful sermons -- the parables -- were simply earthly stories with heavenly meanings, using such common imagery as salt and light, sheep, a mustard seed, weeds, lamps with oil, and workers in a vineyard. Preaching the Parables expands on fourteen of Jesus' parables appearing in Cycle A of the Revised Common Lectionary and brings them into a more modern setting. In Sheffield's hands, the stories he loves to tell are as varied as familiar songs in the hymnal: he uses the children's song "The Wise Man Built His House upon the Rock" as a springboard for a vivid portrayal of the difference between wise and foolish builders; "This Little Light of Mine" provides further insight into Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5; and the plaintive wail of "The Ninety and Nine" reminds us -- just like Luke 15 -- that if we were the only wandering sheep, our wonderful shepherd would seek for us until we were found. The parables of Jesus as familiar, predictable Sunday school stories? Not when Richard Sheffield is doing the preaching and teaching! This book is must reading for Christians who seek a lifelong Christ-centered faith.

Download or read book Eis Peirasmon written by Federico Elmetti and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-09-28 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past two thousand years, theologians and biblical scholars have been furiously debating the correct interpretation of the sixth petition of the Lord’s Prayer (“and lead us not into temptation”). Despite all the hypotheses proposed, no convincing solution has been found to date. In fact, every single attempt has crashed against insurmountable difficulties. Even within the church, the debate on this topic is far from settled. Recently, both France and Italy approved new translations that deviate substantially from the two-thousand-year-old traditional Latin version. Since God cannot be the one leading us into temptation (Satan is), it becomes necessary to reformulate the petition by hiding God’s responsibility under convoluted permissive constructs. But can any of these interpretations have any exegetical justification? This book is an ambitious and reckless attempt—from the point of view of an outsider, of a theoretical physicist—to rethink the Lord’s Prayer from the beginning, and with it, to come closer, if possible, to the authentic message of Christ. As a result of a rigorous, deductive, scientific approach that minimizes any hermeneutical bias, the meaning of the sixth petition will spontaneously emerge and appear to the reader in its simplicity and elegance.

Download or read book Saving Sinners even Moslems written by Jerzy Zdanowski and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the Mission of the Reformed Church in America sent to Arabia in 1889 to preach the Gospel, and which operated in the Persian Gulf until 1973. It also explores the various cultural encounters between missionaries and Muslims, and discusses conversion and the place of Islam in the Protestant eschatology. It maintains that John G. Lansing from the New Brunswick Theological Seminary, New Jersey, who founded the Arabian Mission, deliberately dedicated the Mission to “direct Muslim evangelism”. In terms of premillennialism, Lansing “moved” Islam into the very centre of the theological discourse, and presented the evangelization of Muslims as critical for Christ’s Second Coming. This made the Arabian Mission unique among the American Protestant Missions, and placed the Church and missionaries between religious pluralism and the obligations of the Great Commission.

Download or read book An Indian Trinitarian Theology of Missio Dei written by P. V. Joseph and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent rediscovery of the doctrine of the Trinity has left great impact on the thought and life of the Christian Church. With this reinstatement, the Trinity, which was left out for long as an esoteric mystery, has captured the imagination of theologians and elicited remarkable trinitarian formulations from across theological traditions. This contemporary development has forced the church to review its dogma, spirituality, and Christian practices through the lens of this central doctrine of the Christian faith. One of the important and essential upshots of the doctrine has been the reclamation of a theocentric and trinitarian understanding of mission as the missio Dei. In view of the modern renewal of the Trinity and the global expansion of Christianity, this book explores insights and perspectives from the trinitarian thoughts of St. Augustine and the Indian theologian Brahmabandhab Upadhyay that can inform missio Dei theology relevant for the Indian context.
