“The church’s most penetrating theologians have invariably been preachers immersed in ‘the word of God, living and active’ (Heb 4:12). Among them stands Luke Timothy Johnson: exegete, prophet, consoler, and—of prime importance—Christian disciple. Perceptive, honest, and faithful, Out of Season is a gathering of sermons for all seasons. Attend carefully. Through them, the Spirit unites us with the mind of Christ.”
“Preachers, seminarians, new disciples and old: come with your hands and hearts open, because in this book Luke Timothy Johnson gives bread, not a stone, to all who ask. In sermon after sermon, Johnson graciously expounds Scripture’s word about God’s claim on every aspect of our lives. But be ready, for in Johnson’s telling, this word not only nourishes—it also convicts and lays bare the very secrets of our hearts.”
