“The Old Testament is often ignored by the church and those who preach from its pulpits. In Preaching from the Old Testament, Brueggemann challenges this disregard in his trademark fashion as the conscious of our time. His theological insight and practical tools for preaching are invaluable; after reading this book, there won't be any more excuses not to preach from the Old Testament.”
