Embodying the Word

An eloquent and compelling volume which explores the way in which preachers embody their messages – in their own person, in the words they use, in employing objects and pictures, in engaging with literature and drama. *Embodying the Word* contains many helpful examples, excerpts from real addresses and two or three exercises in each chapter. It may be seen primarily as a practical workbook, designed to be of use in preparing next Sunday’s sermon.

Beyond words, what is it that really helps preachers get their message across? This book explores the ways in which preachers embody their messages - in their own person, in the words they use, in employing objects, pictures, the arts and the responses of those hearing the sermon. Suitable for most theological traditions, "Embodying the Word" is aimed at a broad range of Christian denominations. Although related to the author's previous work, "A Preaching Workbook", this volume will be complementary.Read less
