Preaching Must Die!

Preaching & Worship

“Myers makes an uncompromising, original, and spicy statement about why preaching must meet its maker in order to incarnate the impossible and enunciate humble dreams of welcome for a divine that might arrive at any moment.”

Protestant Spiritual Traditions, Volume Two

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Frank Senn’s Protestant Spiritual Traditions, Volume One already distinguished itself as a much-needed pathway to discover the complexity, beauty, and wisdom of Protestant piety. Volume Two deepens the investigation with due consideration of congregational, evangelical, contemplative, and charismatic traditions that coalesce and diverge from the mainline. It also introduces wide geographical reach to East Asia, creation as a whole, and human bodies around the world that reverence God within the erotic and the ordinary.”

Ritual and Christian Worship

Preaching & Worship

“Truscott leads presiders, practitioners, and explorers of ritual through social and scientific theory, scriptural warrant, Reformed rationale, and codes to guide liturgical action in service to God, neighbor, and Christian assemblies, wherever and however they gather. Who knew that ethology (the study of animal behavior), 2 Kings, and Luther and Calvin could all work together for understanding and enacting ritual unity? His rigor makes the abstraction of Christian ritual more theologically real.”

The Great Coronavirus Pandemic and Messages from the Prophets

Preaching & Worship

Foreword

“Out of a cultural milieu that would make any preacher shudder, Doman Lum dares not only to name how God remains with us, but declares why our outcry is not unheard but helps lift us up to where Jesus is, and suggests how God is a potter shaping antiracist protests and molding the national upheaval into a better future headed toward the promise of a new creation. . . . Lum’s focus upon drawing words of spiritual endurance and assurance from the prophetic literature of the Old Testament will show readers how one seasoned preacher shone light during the pandemic of 2020 and how the promises of God persist no matter how apocalyptic things seem.”
