Publisher's Description
Preaching the Manifold Grace of God is a two-volume work describing theologies of preaching from the historical and contemporary periods. Volume 1 focuses on historical theological families: Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Reformed, Anabaptist, Anglican/Episcopal, Wesleyan, Baptist, African American, Stone-Campbell, Friends, and Pentecostal. Volume 2 focuses on families that are evangelical, liberal, neo-orthodox, postliberal, existential, radical orthodox, deconstructionist, Black liberation, womanist, Latinx liberation, Mujerista, Asian American, Asian American feminist, LGBTQAI, Indigenous, postcolonial, and process. In each case, the author describes the circumstances in which the theological family emerged, describes the purposes and characteristics of preaching from that perspective, and assesses the strengths and limitations of the approach.

“Allen and contributors offer a timely resource to help new and longtime practitioners consider the traditions and contexts that shape their preaching. It recovers an often invisible, but ever present, thread between the past and present. A must-read for the lifelong and conscientious student of preaching in the complex world before us.”
“This helpful homiletical resource explores theologies of preaching from diverse contemporary perspectives, illuminating the richness of the proclamation of the gospel in the church. It is a true gift, because the breadth of contemporary theological perspectives in this book is a revelation of the breadth and beauty of God.”
