“What is the nature of the Christian faith? Lest we forget, it's about questions, curiosity, and wonder. Stenberg calls us back to God’s revelation and reminds us that God insists on and invites us into relationship. Reading this book, anticipate an adventure in the unpredictable and uncertain arenas of theology that is at the same time grounded in God's reckless love.”

A Preacher’s Guide to Topical Sermon Series

Preaching & Worship

“Preaching series are always a welcome option for gospel imagination and inspiration. This volume is an invaluable resource to challenge any homiletical rut and take your preaching in new and exciting directions.”

Acts of the Apostles

Preaching & Worship

“Ron Allen's new commentary on Acts is a gem for preachers. Allen honors the otherness of Biblical texts and helps interpreters engage critically the theological issues that emerge out of struggling faithfully with them. In the process, Allen invites all of us through his commentary to bear our own witness to the realm of God in today's church." —David Schnasa Jacobsen Boston University School of Theology "For the preacher who feels as if Luke's Gospel is just getting started, Allen's commentary tells the rest of the story with theological and hermeneutical accessibility and depth. The literary and thematic integration of Luke and its second volume as homiletical principle and potential for interpreting Acts has never been more promising.”

From Widows to Warriors

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“The women of the Old Testament gain new life in Japinga’s imagination and give us new life in how we view and interpret the Bible as the Word of the Lord.”

Preaching and Music

Preaching & Worship

“Preachers have always known the deep connections between preaching and music, but for Williams, this partnership results in reciprocal homiletical possibilities of symphonic heights. That music can lighten the preacher’s load by sharing in the proclamation of the good news of God is just the pastoral and spiritual promise every preacher needs to hear.”

Preaching Disability

Church Leadership & Ministry

“This book is a remarkable resource for preachers. Blending pastoral, biblical, hermeneutical, and liturgical sensitivities, Gaventa has given the homiletical world a true gift for preaching the fullness of God’s love.”

Preaching in/and the Borderlands

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“A timely release, this collection of essays speaks boldly and prophetically to how the church needs to be church for God’s vulnerable beloved, called to risky speech, empowered presence, and embodied love for the sake of God’s love for the whole world.”

Preaching the Women of the Old Testament

Preaching & Worship

“Telling the stories of the untold is a proclamatory act. The women of the Old Testament gain new life in Japinga’s imagination and give us new life in how we view and interpret the Bible as the Word of the Lord. This book is indispensable for the preacher who is committed to discovering how God acts in those persons and stories that most would choose to overlook.”

The Digital Pulpit

Preaching & Worship

“A profoundly helpful and inspiring collection representing global perspectives on how preachers might navigate with faithfulness and sacred wonder the new homiletical world of digital proclamation.”

Thy Queendom Come

Women

“Honest and liberating, Thy Queendom Come invites us to be citizens in a land like no other. Smashing the patriarchy has never been more life-giving.”

Ways of the Word

Preaching & Worship

“The theological claim of Word made flesh suggests that embodied preaching should be what we do, yet few books take this premise seriously in executing a homiletic for today's changing contexts of preaching. Sally A. Brown and Luke A. Powery assume the incarnation with passion and promise, building a way of approaching the homiletical task that has 'learning-by-doing' at its core. In this significant contribution, the power of the embodied Word rings with inspired newness and revelation into the vast diversities of our world.”

What’s Right with Preaching Today?

Preaching & Worship

“A worthy tribute to the legacy of Fred Craddock and a gem for preachers today. When preachers wonder if their sermons matter, this collection of stirring essays will be an endless source of encouragement and a trusted companion for inspiration. The many challenges of the craft of preaching give way to celebration—good news all preachers need to hear.”
