The "New Homiletic" movement initially focused on individual listeners. Then, homiletic scholars began to emphasize the importance of the faith community as a whole in the preaching event. The preaching method was changed from a rhetorical style to a more conversational and participatory one. In keeping with a postmodern context, Christian proclamation was also extended to marginalized, silenced, and oppressed others. Yet what is lacking in all this development is a balanced account of the role of the divine agency in the preaching event. The Pauline vision of the body of Christ in the Spirit, together with Michael Welker's doctrine of the Spirit as God's force field and the public person of Christ, provide the grounding for claiming Christian preaching as communal participation in the Spirit's working force for proclamation. Proclamation as a divine-human activity is not the preaching act of individual preachers, but a mutual giving and receiving of the manifestations of preaching by the whole church in the Spirit. A homiletics of communal participation in the Spirit focusing on the initiating agency of the Spirit and the mediating agency of the church can provide practical styles of preaching that extend to the whole of God's creation. To this end, I draw on practices of the Korean Church that embody the communal participatory spirit of the Korean people, specifically Korean "madangguk," which is the contemporary heir to traditional Korean theater arts.

Scott Gibson and Matthew Kim, both experienced preachers and teachers, have brought together four preaching experts--Bryan Chapell, Kenneth Langley, Abraham Kuruvilla, and Paul Scott Wilson--to present and defend their approaches to homiletics. Reflecting current streams of thought in homiletics, the book offers a robust discussion of theological and hermeneutical approaches to preaching and encourages pastors and ministry students to learn about preaching from other theological traditions. It also includes discussion questions for direct application to one's preaching.

In this volume, representatives of several North American Baptist seminaries and a Baptist university make the exegetical and theological case for a Baptist polity. Right polity, they argue, is congregationalism, elder leadership, diaconal service, regenerate church membership, church discipline, and a Baptist approach to the ordinances.

Pastors often feel bombarded with an array of options for how to implement their craft. In this helpful book, Robert Reid argues that pastors will be more faithful and effective in their preaching when they understand exactly what they are trying to accomplish when they enter the pulpit. Do they want to encourage? Offer wisdom? Persuade folks to take up a particular course of action? Prophetically criticize the church or society? Reid contends that preachers tend to generally adopt one of four possible "voices" for their preaching: teaching, encouraging, sage, or testifying. He shows how these four voices differ, helps pastors understand which voice is predominantly theirs, and helps them sharpen the appropriate preaching skills. Sample sermons of each type of voice are included.
