Preaching: The Art of Narrative Exposition
FRONT FLAP: A powerful synthesis of biblical truth and storytelling Pastors and seminary students need to learn how to connect to younger church members, such as GenXers and millenials. They need a fresh wineskin for the timeless message of redemption. The challenge of contemporary preaching is packaging a message that holds the attention and touches the hearts of those who listen-while offering biblical substance in the process. Many preachers long to bring exposition and narrative together in a style that leads to transcendent moments. This book will help you embrace this healthy combination and preach in a way that is kingdom-building. Calvin Miller has preached and equipped preachers for decades.  In Preaching, he offers a volume of helpful insights for pastors and homiletics students to deliver the heart of the gospel via the Jesus-approved vessel of compelling storytelling.
