Overview
The Gospel of John and 1 John exhibit a peculiar Christian language and thought. The preacher's task, then, involves penetrating the thick and often confusing language of these books and comprehending their frequently paradoxical theology. The preacher can find new and powerful resources for preaching in Johannine language and thought, as well as its use of narrative and discourse. These discoveries facilitate preaching John in ways that are consistent with recent trends in homiletic theory. The method of this book is to combine the practice (how to preach John) with proposals for understanding the Gospel and 1 John. The author offers a variety of sermon ideas and designs throughout each chapter, based on numerous passages selected from the Revised Common Lectionary.Book Details
