Navigating the Sermon: Series II, Cycle A - Paperback

by Michael Sherer (Editor)

For each Sunday in Cycle A, the writers, and editors of "Charting the Course," an integral part of "Emphasis: A Lectionary Preaching Journal" from CSS Publishing Company, delve into the heart of the lectionary readings, providing you, the pastor, with an in-depth lectionary-based commentary; relating several fresh, solid ideas-based squarely on the lectionary texts-for creating sermons that speak powerfully to your audience. The team of Navigating the Sermon looks for overall topics for the entire Cycle A church year that hold the readings together. Then, they zero in on the theme and the specific scripture links, suggesting directions for the sermon and worship service. Since a single application for each week many not provide what you're looking for at that particular time, Navigating the Sermon in most cases suggests several ideas, giving you the opportunity to select the one that matches your specific needs.

This book is like having a dedicated, thoroughly versed sermon research and resource team right in your own study to help you create riveting sermons that are truly yours and that speak powerfully to your congregation.
