Beschreibung

Print on Demand. This book is a significant work in the field of homiletics, which explores the principles and practices of Christian preaching. The author draws upon the rich history of the homily, situating the topic within its religious and cultural background. The book delves into the essential nature, indispensable qualities for preachers, and core elements of the sermon. The author emphasizes the unique character of Christian preaching, underscoring its distinction from rhetoric. Preaching, they argue, is not simply public speaking, but a witness of one's faith, a call to action, and a means of spiritual transformation. Central to this is the preacher's personal experience of salvation, which enables them to speak with authenticity and passion. This book offers guidance on various aspects of sermon preparation and delivery. It explores the art of textual exegesis, the different methods of sermon construction, and the use of rhetorical techniques. Crucially, the author stresses the importance of adapting the sermon to the diverse needs of the congregation, while adhering to the fundamental principles of the Christian faith. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the art and science of Christian preaching. It offers valuable insights for preachers seeking to enhance their skills and deepen their understanding of their calling.

Excerpt from Homiletic: Lectures on Preaching

Christlieb died at the moment when he had just begun to gather round him a larger circle of decidedly believing students of theology, who were trained by him to a more scriptural and practical conception and exercise of the preacher's office, and whose devoted activity in the Church has since given proof of the justice and usefulness of their master's teaching.
