Some suggest that preaching is an outdated mode of communication in our image-saturated, Internet-savvy world. Yet God still calls and speaks through preachers to transform people's lives. While in many ways the task of the preacher is the same as it ever was, each new generation presents unique challenges and opportunities for those who seek to deliver God's message through preaching.
Preaching Essentials offers new and seasoned preachers a comprehensive, practical perspective on preaching to a new generation. Short, easy-to-read chapters cover topics like the rationale for preaching, importance of context, process of preparation, mechanics of presentation, discipline of planning, and development of a growth plan. Luchetti offers plenty of fresh insights--like using story, imagination, and mind-mapping--and suggests new habits that can reenergize your preaching.
Without being theologically shallow or homiletically simplistic, Preaching Essentials is accessible and practical to preachers across the gamut of experience, education, and ethnicity, no matter where they find themselves on the preaching journey.
