In this companion volume to A Space for Grace, Johan Cilliers delves into some of the most profound theological underpinnings of preaching. Drawing on his extraordinary depth and breadth of scholarship, Cilliers examines the aesthetic, qualitative, and relational dimensions of sermonic time. Faithful preaching, he argues, is an art of speaking the now of grace, which is inextricably linked to past and future, but is simultaneously a dynamic event filled with the revelatory presence of God. Along with helpful reflections on pieces of visual art, Cilliers provides numerous sample sermons, as well as several detailed sermon analyses.

Welche kritischen Analysen christlich-religiöser Symbole und kirchlicher Praxis sind nötig, um kulturelle Stereotype und hegemoniale Vorstellungen freizulegen? Inwiefern lassen sich postkoloniale und dekolonialisierende, aber auch rekolonialisierende Praktiken im Kontext des Religiösen und der Kirchen identifizieren? Mit diesen Fragen befassen sich die in diesem Band vorliegenden Beiträge. Versammelt sind theoretische Überlegungen wie empirische und historische Fallstudien im Zusammenhang von Problemstellungen und Konzepten postkolonialer Theorien. Es zeigt sich: Wissen ist prekär. In den vielschichtigen Zusammenhängen seines Erwerbs wie seiner Organisation geht es immer um Praktiken der Legitimierung, Sanktionierung und Priorisierung und damit um die Gestaltung von Machtverhältnissen.

Preaching to the "choir" is always complicated, but especially so when that choir happens to be a seminary community. In this collection of sermons, delivered in the chapel of the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary (PCUSA), Robert P. Hoch, Assistant Professor of Homiletics and Worship, weaves together life experiences, careful readings of the Scripture, and pastoral wisdom for the benefit of seminarians, pastors, and educators. Often poetic, Dr. Hoch's sermons are crafted so that they speak not only to the peculiar life of a seminary community, but more broadly to the larger life of the church. Beyond the sermons themselves, readers will hear Dr. Hoch's reflections on individual sermons, reflections that sometimes betray the sermon behind the sermon. Whether as a student, seasoned pastor, or officer in the church, readers will find in these pages a partner with whom they can share the journey of faith.
