Preaching: The Mirror of God

By Brooke Wickliffe Fisher and Rev. Brooke Wickliffe Fisher

Preaching is real and authentic when it discloses Gods presence, illumines works of revelation, enables reconciliation between humankind and God and bears the redemptive gift of Gods love for each one of us. Preaching: The Mirror of God is a reflection of the essence and qualities of true, meaningful preaching, encompassing Gods love, reconciliation, and kerugma, God working through Christ in and for people. The book examines the wisdom of great preachers understanding of what works, what connects the man or woman in the pew to Gods wisdom disclosed through the gift of the preacher. The format of the text interweaves the hunger for meaning found in Fosdicks counseling sermon methodology. Three gifted pastors insights, reflections, and experience add depth to the understanding Rev. Wickliffe Fisher believes makes preaching real. We live in a time when the human race needs to find God in our midst so that the issues confronting our world can be met head on and we, the human race, can have a metanoia, a turning around, to live the lives of mature integrity, respecting all human life and living the life that is Gods gift to us.
