Download or read book Press Your Claim written by Dr Evalina Huggins and published by CrossBooks Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good preachers are always strong. They can cope with anything life throws their way. They never lose their cool. Their faith never wavers. They never grow weary. They are never frightened. This author asserts that this is far from the truth. The Shepherd bleeds just like the sheep. As a preacher herself, Huggins once thought she had to be like that super-spiritual, always caring for others, and so close to God that nothing in life could shake her. When she suffered a painful loss, she numbed herself and put on a stoic face. Later, suddenly blindsided by the grief she had suppressed, she realized that although she was a preacher, she was also human. Not only that, but God could use her experience to help her preach with an authenticity and power she had not felt before. Being in touch with her own struggles drew her closer to Jesus; by weaving them into her sermons, directly or indirectly, she could show how God's presence manifests itself in an ordinary person's life. Now, she challenges other preachers to do the same. Our worship services, places of worship, and music styles may change over the years, but powerful, passionate preaching is timeless. Here is one preacher courageous enough to recognize her God-given humanity and allow it to contribute to her proclamation of the Gospel, making for a richer, deeper experience for all those who read the words of this book and hear her voice in the preaching moment.

Download or read book Rhetoric of the Protestant Sermon in America written by Eric C. Miller and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-01-20 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Rhetoric of the Protestant Sermon in America: Pulpit Discourse at the Turn of the Millennium, ten scholars analyze notable sermons from the fifty-year span between 1965 and 2015, during which the Protestant sermon has undergone significant change in the United States. Contributors examine how this turbulent time period witnessed a variety of important shifts in the arguments, evidences, and rhetorical strategies employed by contemporary preachers. Because religious practice is inextricably tangled in the culture, politics, and economy of its historical situation, the public expression of a faith is certain to move with the times. In their treatment of race, sex, gender, class, and citizenship, sermons apply ancient texts to current events and controversies, often to revealing effect. This collection, thoughtfully edited by Eric C. Miller and Jonathan J. Edwards, demonstrates how the genre of the Protestant sermon has evolved—or resisted evolution—across the years. Scholars of religion, rhetoric, communication, sociology, and cultural studies will find this book particularly useful.
