Produktbeschreibung
"Will equip preachers to more faithfully and more confidently preach a neglected biblical corpus" Preachers often struggle with preaching Old Testament poetry. They are uncertain how to preach the highly emotive poems in Psalms, the one-liners in Proverbs, the tedious conversations in Job, the esoteric observations about life in Ecclesiastes, and the confusing love poems in the Song of Songs. This book guides readers through preaching the Old Testament poetic books, introducing foundational issues and offering basic methodology and preaching strategies that are faithful to the text and attuned to listeners. "Mathewson is a gifted preacher and teacher of preachers. He knows how much skill and wisdom it takes to preach Old Testament poetry. Thankfully, in this excellent book he shows us how to do it and do it well." --Jared E. Alcántara, Truett Theological Seminary, Baylor University "A master class in powerful, genre-sensitive preaching. Mathewson offers exegetical insight, preaching strategies, and theological considerations for each poetic book, equipping preachers to engage these challenging texts with confidence and clarity. Drawing on his extensive experience in the pulpit and a thorough knowledge of the Scriptures, Mathewson's guide is sophisticated, profound, and exceptionally clear." --Michelle Knight, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School "Preaching the poetic books is a challenge that intimidates many preachers, who avoid these books to their congregations' loss. Mathewson's helpful guide lessens the fear and empowers pastors to better serve their flocks. Pastors, read this book, and preach the whole Bible!" --Bill Kynes, pastor, Cornerstone Evangelical Free Church (retired); coauthor of Wrestling with Job: Defiant Faith in the Face of Suffering "Are you apprehensive about preaching from the poetic books of the Old Testament? Start here! Mathewson's interweaving of interpretive guidance and sermonic strategies will equip preachers to more faithfully and more confidently preach a neglected biblical corpus." --Heather Joy Zimmerman, Moody Theological Seminary
