"Full of ideas and clear in style. Gathers the basic raw material for a sermon in a lively way. A fresh new look that listeners and preachers are wanting desperately".----Dr. Fred B. Craddock Emory University
This introductory-level textbook from one of the best-known professors of preaching in the U.S. helps the reader understand the sermon in terms of the movement of time, place, shape, space, conflict, complication, and the "sudden shift" of the text.
Lowry explains the rationale behind the 1992 lectionary revision, examines specific Biblical texts, shows how to overcome the obstacles of lectionary preaching, and analyzes the claims of text, situation, sermon form, and gospel upon the preacher. Lowry is the author of Doing Time im the Pulpit and How to Preach a Parable.
