From the East Gate: A Preaching Anthology, 1996-2024

By Adam S. Linton

Book Overview

From the East Gate is a highly personal and retrospective selection of sermons from 1996 to 2024, including reflections on what preaching is (and isn't), with an introductory essay on what the Bible is and how to read it. Linton's background in both Eastern Orthodox and Reformed theology (including a special interest in Karl Barth), combined with his lifelong interests in literature and the arts, make for a highly distinctive intersection of perspectives. His style is inviting and thought-provoking, gentle but also provocative, and draws his readers into deeper engagement not only with the Scriptures, but also into conversation with centuries of Christian thought. Deeply traditional in his theological grounding, he is also refreshingly difficult to categorize. Judicious elements of memoir scattered throughout (in which the wilds of Northwest Montana appear) make this collection all the more intriguing.
