Preaching that Shows

Revealing Relevance

About this book

For many years the resolution plot has dominated homiletical theory, made most famous by the 'Lowry Loop' – a staple of preaching theory for today's ministry student. Whilst the approach is important, some have accused 'resolution plot' of leaving little room for ambiguity, and failing to reflect the messy reality of life.Offering a ground-breaking approach as a counter to well-worn preaching strategies, 'Preaching That Shows' explores the 'revelatory plot', focused more on the gradual revelation of relevant truths within the biblical text through character and embodied insight, and through imaginative and sensory detail rather than through answering the questions 'how and 'why'. It will prove an invaluable resource for students, homileticians and preachers alike.
