| Preaching Hebrews (Rochester College Lectures on Preaching #4), Vol. 4 | | Author: | David Fleer (Editor) | ISBN: | 0891121382 | Format: | Handover | Publish Date: | June, 2005 | | | | | | | | | Book Review | | | Preaching Hebrews (Rochester College Lectures on Preaching #4), Vol. 4 FROM THE PUBLISHER We all may like to think of ourselves as a part of that great cloud of witnesses, but when it comes to preaching from Hebrews, the source of that image, we often fall silent. We are intimidated by its priestly, sacrificial imagery and its complicated, complex argumentation. However, we and our congregations are the lesser for that silence. In this volume, David Fleer and Dave Bland enable us to sit in on a wonderful conversation around the Letter to the Hebrews. The essays and sermons encourage us to rethink our avoidance and wrestle with the sermon of one who had much to say to Christians today. But not only do they provide a rich resource on an undervalued text, they offer stimulating challenges to rethinking contemporary preaching itself.
