Exploring and Proclaiming the Apostles' Creed
'It is hard to imagine the gospel more clearly, intelligently, and pointedly articulated than in these learned essays and sermons. Exploring and Proclaiming the Apostles' Creed offers a timely challenge to speak, hear, and obey the Word of God attested in Holy Scripture through appropriation and confession of the faith of the church catholic. This book is a "blessed disturbance" if ever there was one and a boon to catechesis and doctrinal preaching.' (Charles L. Bartow, Princeton Theological Seminary)'These comprehensive commentaries by great preachers on the Apostles' Creed offer a rich breadth of theological insight for sermons. William H. Willimon, Duke University Chapel Who says that doctrine won't preach? Here is grand, exalted Christian theology explored with creed and preached with vitality and conviction. A quite wonderful series of reflections on the great claims of our faith.' Henry H. Mitchell, author of Black Preaching'These essays and sermons enrich and play off each other in a splendid way. The book reminds us that the best doctrinal preaching is also always biblical preaching, and that sermons can be didactic without being pedantic.' David Bartlett, Yale Divinity School
