FROM THE PUBLISHER: He 's been called a contrarian, a provocateur, and a few other things we can t say in print. He 's also been called one of the twelve most effective proclaimers of the gospel in the English-speaking world. He 's been a pastor, a chaplain, and a bishop. But ask William H. Willimon how he sees himself, and he ll tell you it 's as a preacher and a truth-teller. He has pursued that passion for preaching the truth of God in over sixty books. Gathered in this volume are Willimon 's best writings on what it means to be a faithful Christian, and a faithful preacher of the Christian gospel, in today 's world. All the themes that so enliven his writings the gospel 's refusal to be co-opted by the culture, the strangeness of Christian faith, the centrality of the preached word of God are present here. Whether you re a long time Willimon reader or are encountering him for the first time, you will find inspiration and much food for thought from this, one of God 's most peculiar prophets. |
