The Foolishness of God: Reclaiming Preaching in the Anglican Tradition

Overview

Preaching seems to have fallen on hard times in recent years. The pulpit has been marginalized, the sermon has been trivialized, and priests and ministers have felt the pressure to leave the study for the board room. Now we are counselors, executives, program directors, and political pundits-too often forgetting that God has called us first to be preachers. Preaching is utter madness. But it is precisely through the insanity of the preached Word that the foolishness of God is made manifest-a folly that upends the world's wisdom, a weakness that demolishes all other power structures-the proclamation of the Crucified God who gives life to all who believe. The Foolishness of God urges us to remember our heritage without resting on our laurels. In these pages, God's spokesmen are called to blow the dust from atop the sacred desk and preach the Word as though lives depended upon it-because they do.
