  • 6 Deadly Sins Of Preaching

    $17.99

    This ethics of preaching text identifies vices of irresponsible preaching practices. Preachers who fail to develop deep respect for their listeners or drift into a lack faithfulness to the Gospel can end up becoming:

    * The Pretender (The Problem of In-authenticity)
    * The Egoist (The Problem of Self-absorption)
    * The Manipulator (The Problem of Greediness)
    * The Panderer (The Problem of Trendiness)
    * The Crusader (The Problem of Exploitation)
    * The Demagogue (The Problem of Self-righteousness)

    Just as the church historically derived its Seven Holy Virtues (chastity, temperance, charity, diligence, patience, kindness, & humility) by naming Seven Deadly Sins (lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy, & pride), Reid and Hogan call preachers to turn away from pulpit vices and strive to realize the homiletic virtues of becoming:

    * Authentic (The Call to Be Genuine)
    * Altruistic (The Call to Be Selfless)
    * Careful (The Call to Exercise Self-Control)
    * Passionate (The Call to Be Honest to God)
    * Courteous (The Call to Woo a Reasoned Reception)
    * A ‘Namer’ of God (The Call to Reveal an Ineffable God)

    The Six Deadly Sins of Preaching explores the difference between the irresponsible practices, unfortunate missteps, and mere unthinking mistakes in preaching. A chapter is devoted to Preaching Missteps (problems that do not rise to the level of being irresponsible) that includes:

    * Short Changing the Process
    * Waving a Red Flag
    * Thou Shall Not Bore the Congregation
    * Through the Looking Glass Darkly
    * The Mumbler
    * TMI-Too Much Information
    * Your Cup Do Runneth Over
    * Where’s This Sermon Going, Anyway?
