Preaching Promise withing the Paradoxes of Life
Paradoxes have become characteristic of the world we live in - poverty and privilege, empire and oppression, migration and enclaveseeking, war and peace, justice and injustice, reconciliation and revenge. During the 2016 Societas Homiletica annual conference held in South Africa, these paradoxes served as a rediscovery of the calling of preachers to deliver the promise that lies within life's contradictions. A divine promise brought forth by the grace of God and the gospel of Christ - embodied in and through us by the Spirit of Christ. This promise may take many forms and calls for discernment and often interrupts the status quos in surprising, shocking ways. It is a promise that interrupts, in order to comfort.
365 Devotions for Peace
365 peaceful days add up to a life-changing year. This affordable daily devotional walks readers through the peace that comes from knowing God in a simple and accessible format. Each entry focuses on ways God offers peace, how to let go of stress and panic and let God guide you, and how to hold onto peace even in the most stressful and hectic of times. Sample excerpt: “The world was dark. For 400 years God had been silent. Not a word. Not a peep. Had he forgotten his people? Did he no longer hear their cries? Then the most incredible thing happened. The heavens broke forth in praise. Shepherds shouted their joy, and that joy reverberated over the mountains. The Lord had heard their cries. He has heard yours and has come to comfort. He brings comforting peace into this dark world, peace into your world. Are you in need of comfort and peace? He has come for you.”
