Additional Info
Jeffrey D. Arthurs’s Preaching as Reminding is a remarkable contribution to the field of homiletics, ably synthesizing and integrating insights from biblical theology, neuroscience, cognitive psychology, media studies, the classical rhetorical tradition, and contemporary cultural analysis. Arthurs equips today’s preachers to stir the hearts, minds, and memories of their listeners to obedient and joyful action. He shows that ‘memory’ in the Bible is not merely a matter of cognitively recalling the past, but rather reengaging existentially with the great redemptive events of the faith. This book is recommended to seminarians, pastors, and all those who are called to proclaim the gospel.
