Description

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."

Author Biography:

Feeling most at home behind a pulpit, Will Willimon's deepest calling is to be a preacher and truth-teller of Jesus Christ. He is Professor of the Practice of Christian Ministry at Duke University Divinity School and retired Bishop of the North Alabama Conference of The United Methodist Church, after serving for 20 years as faculty member and Dean of the Chapel at Duke University. He lives in Durham, North Carolina. Will Willimon has published many books, including his preaching subscription service on MinistryMatters.com, Pulpit Resource, and Fear of the Other: No Fear in Love, both published by Abingdon Press.
