With the growing, renewed attention to the art of preaching, this timely collection from the influential Littlemore Group of theologians explores the role of this vital ministry in today's Church.
Experienced contributors from a wide range of backgrounds - catholic, evangelical and liberal – weave together theology, anecdote and reflection on practice as they share their passion for preaching. Each one is noted for their attentiveness to the poetry of the spoken word in preaching, and the practical challenges and pitfalls of this central activity of public worship. Chapters include:
• The Joy and Terror of Preaching
• The Power of Language
• Localizing the Gospel
• Attentiveness to the Word
• The Sermon as Sacrament
• Genres of Preaching
Contributors include Rachel Mann, Paula Gooder, Donna Lazenby, Sr Judith SLG, Edmund Newey, Anderson Jeremiah and Joel Love.
Holy Attention belongs within a series of volumes produced by the Littlemore Group, which has existed since 2005 as a place of generative theology within the Church of England, with members contributing and editing on a range of themes of relevance to contemporary church and society.
Frances Ward was formerly Dean of St Edmundsbury. Richard Sudworth is National Inter-Religious Affairs Adviser for the Church of England.
