| In our fast-paced multimedia age, Charles Denison argues, preachers need to turn to the use of images to capture and keep the listeners' attention. Denison shows how the preacher's imagination, intuition, and feelings can provide powerful resources for creating sermons that not only are fresh and interesting but also trigger evocative images in the minds of the congregation.This right-brained approach will help pastors free their own imaginations to deliver sermons that aren't bound by traditional rules of preaching. Not only does this revitalize the preacher, but it also awakens the imaginations of the listeners, allowing them to see new ways to connect their faith to the world in which they live and work.This book contains practical exercises that help turn each chapter into a creative workshop for developing good ideas into great sermons, along with sample sermons written by the author. |

| In this repackaged bestselling classic, award-winning storyteller Walter Wangerin, Jr., offers a personal and pastoral look at marriage, told with the fine narrative style that has become his trademark. Most books on marriage offer ten easy steps and twenty-five proven principles for achieving marital bliss. But Walter Wangerin side-steps such easy answers and offers us instead an intimate portrait of his own courtship and thirty-two year marriage - and a pastoral view of married life that inspires readers to view their own marriages with new honesty and hope. Wangerin's six tasks of marriage encourages couples to better understand and happily live out the vows they made, giving them tools to nurture and maintain a strong marital relationship. In his endorsement, Philip Yancey accurately describes this book as "an enduring classic and a book of wisdom, beauty, compassion, and piercing honesty." |
