Many modern preachers have difficulty making Old Testament pericopes seem relevant to today's Christian, but "Story is encouraged as an effective homiletical art form in our time," and "these texts lend themselves to the preachers as excellent opportunities for them to test their skills as gospel storytellers." This collection of ten thoughtfully prepared sermons by Harry Huxhold will lend a welcome consistency and relevancy to your sermons on these often-overlooked scriptures.
Within this collection are sermons for every Cycle C first lesson text during the first third of the Pentecost season from the Common lectionary, including:
- One in Language
- One in Purpose
- One Word of Truth
- One Lonely Prophet
- One Call to Follow
- One Vision of Glory
and four more.
Use thse complete sermons as presented -- or as plentiful inspiration for your own original messages.
