This book examines the early Korean Pentecostal homiletical approach in its context. In particular, it draws on the writings of French philosopher Paul Ricoeur, which mediate between objectively reconstructing the meaning of a text in its original context and moving to the world "in front of" the text. Author Woori Han also focuses on the homilies on the Song of Songs and other works by twelfth-century French Cistercian mystic and theologian Bernard of Clairvaux, whose writings promote the spiritual formation of the believer. The book encourages a balance between emphasizing the individual's dynamic experience of encountering the Holy Spirit (divine healings, miracles, speaking in tongues) and the individual's inner sanctification or purification by the Holy Spirit (union with God in Christ through the Spirit).
This book encourages preachers to deepen their reading of the biblical text and to be open to the possibility of being transformed in the process. The book is especially appropriate for seminary courses on preaching and the history of religion, and for working preachers.
This book examines the transformative way of reading the Bible. In particular, it draws on the writings of French philosopher Paul Ricoeur, which mediate between objectively reconstructing the meaning of a text in its original context and moving to the world "in front of" the text. Author Woori Han also focuses on the homilies on the Song of Songs and other works by twelfth-century French Cistercian mystic and theologian Bernard of Clairvaux, whose writings promote the spiritual formation of the believer. The book provides a five-step transformative engagement with the Scriptures. "The preacher and the hearers become one in the Lord through the help and working of the Holy Spirit. Preachers should engage in biblical text studies and clearly communicate the original meaning of the text. Woori Han provides a new understanding of the research on these areas. I hope that the book will serve as be valuable study material for all the Lord's workers who long for a Pentecostal revival." -YoungHoon Lee, Senior pastor of the Yoido Full Gospel Church in Seoul "Woori Han offers a critical vision of the spiritual interpretation of Biblical texts for the Korean Pentecostal context. Han draws on the work of the mystic Bernard of Clairvaux to show how a process of spiritual reading can build on this Ricoeurean hermeneutic in a way that augments and strengthens lively Biblical interpretation for preaching. Han offers a powerful, critical vision for renewing Korean Pentecostal preaching by building on and transforming its strengths and living traditions." -David Schnasa Jacobsen, Bishops Scholar in Homiletics and Preaching at Boston University School of Theology "This beautifully written, interdisciplinary text, one which drinks plentifully from the springs of Sacred Scripture as lived and contemplated throughout the centuries, brings together a young Korean Pentecostal pastor's effort to show the transformative power of a preacher's union with God, in Christ, through the Spirit. It brings forth not only a rich, ancient harvest of Christian wisdom and life but also provides new seeds, a vibrant method for preachers and their assemblies wishing to be set afire experientially with the love of the Spirit present in the world today." -Eduardo C. Fernández, SJ, Professor of Pastoral Theology and Ministry at the Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University and the Graduate Theological Union "The freshness of this wholistic approach suggests the possibility of a transformative reading of the Word of God in a way that broadens the revelatory grace at work in evangelical preaching. Union with God Thorough a Transformative Homiletic is an important ecumenical contribution to the field of homiletics, honoring both the biblical witness and those gathered to hear the Word of God as the testimony of their own lives. In such a dialogic preaching event, both preacher and assembly experience God's Word as truly 'fulfilled in their hearing' (Lk. 4:21)." -Paul A. Janowiak S.J., Associate Professor of Liturgical and Sacramental Theology, Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University and the Graduate Theological Union

Rezensionen
"Dr. Woori Han, engaging his beloved Korean Pentecostal ministry of preaching, provides a contemporary and much needed dialogue between this rich faith tradition, contemporary hermeneutics exemplified by Paul Ricouer's approach to an existential reading of a text, and the Roman Catholic practice of lectio divina, as explored in the homilies of the Cistercian mystic and theologian, Bernard of Clairvaux. The freshness of this wholistic approach suggests the possibility of a transformative reading of the Word of God in a way that broadens the revelatory grace at work in evangelical preaching. Union with God Thorough a Transformative Homiletic is an important ecumenical contribution to the field of homiletics, honoring both the biblical witness and those gathered to hear the Word of God as the testimony of their own lives. In such a dialogic preaching event, both preacher and assembly experience God's Word as truly 'fulfilled in their hearing' (Lk. 421)." -Paul A.
