Sidney Greidanus

Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, 25 cze 2007 - 518

Sidney Greidanus's previous two preaching books -- The Modern Preacher and the Ancient Text andPreaching Christ from the Old Testament -- have received wide acclaim. Preaching Christ from Genesis offers more of Greidanus's solid, practical homiletical fare.

Packed with unique features, Preaching Christ from Genesis

• uses the latest scholarly research to analyze twenty-three Genesis narratives
• presents the rhetorical structures and other literary features of each narrative
• discloses the message for Israel (theme) as well as the author's likely purpose (goal)
• explores various ways of preaching Christ from each narrative
• offers sermon exposition and commentary in oral style
• suggests relevant sermon forms, introductions, and applications

  Including helpful appendixes -- "Ten Steps from Text to Sermon," "An Expository Sermon Model," and three of the author's own Genesis sermons -- this volume will be an invaluable resource for preachers and Bible teachers.

Many pastors hesitate to preach the old testament. This book will help you to preach in the book of Genesis
