""People do not resist the call to the ministry because they are afraid they will have to prepare church budgets. No, like so many who went before them, they do not feel adequate to accept the responsibility of proclaiming God's word. I encourage all, from neophyte to seasoned preachers, to engage in this fascinating conversation. These preachers and scholars challenge us to reflect upon the crucial issues of identity and authority in the pulpit."" --Lucy Lind Hogan Hugh Latimer Elderdice Professor of Preaching and Worship Wesley Theological Seminary ""This volume provides a much-needed insight into the preaching event. Its title aptly reflects the authors' firm belief that text, preacher, and congregant are all active participants in interpreting and understanding Scripture. Divergent voices have contributed essays, yielding a collection that addresses many kinds of preaching events."" --Nancy L. deClaiss�-Walford Carolyn Ward Professor of Old Testament and Biblical Languages McAfee School of Theology
