Table of ContentsReviews"""Ethical Approaches to Preaching could not come at a better time as preachers grapple with how to address the concerns that matter to their listeners, their communities, and a hurting world. With methodical clarity and a helpful organizational framework, McClure gives preachers a guide to thinking through four different approaches to social issues, as well as how to apply the approaches in a given situation. This is an essential handbook for courageous, prophetic, and prudent sermons!"" --Leah D. Schade, author of Preaching in the Purple Zone ""Clear and concise explanations of preaching as 'theo-ethical Christian practices.' This handbook is one of the best resources to learn how to preach on ethical issues in a contextually appropriate way. The author's sermons on immigration and carefully selected 'situational sermon examples' are practically helpful in teaching and learning various ethical approaches to preaching."" --Eunjoo Mary Kim, Iliff School of Theology ""In a time when responsible, clear-headed Christian ethical praxis and reflection have never been more crucial, this is a book that belongs on every preacher's desk. . . . McClure devotes chapters to each of four distinctive approaches to Christian ethics in the pulpit: communicative ethics, 'witness' ethics, liberation ethics, and 'hospitality' ethics. . . . McClure not only lays out the primary theological/theoretical commitments and aims of a specific approach to ethical reflection, but proposes concrete practices for active ethical engagement beyond the church walls, as well as key homiletical strategies commensurate with the approach under discussion."" --Sally A.
