As I said, everything has changed so our preaching must change as well. We really need to come to a new consensus about what the Bible is and how we can use it. I just don't see how "biblical preaching" can happen anymore the way it did in the past. In fact, I don't think it is happening. Texts are now primirily pre-texts for orations on a whole assortment of topics. I just think it would be a lot better if we acknowledged this and developed some new understanding of what preaching is about.Doug Kingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830571125611956474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349070.post-87506673787785653962009-07-19T15:50:36.300-06:002009-07-19T15:50:36.300-06:00I read this, then I read your suggested link and g...I read this, then I read your suggested link and get very excited about a chance for peace.<br /><br />http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/07/magazine/07wwln-essay-t.html?_r=1<br /><br />David McAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349070.post-1160122175091460592009-07-18T17:34:57.996-06:002009-07-18T17:34:57.996-06:00Ok...I am with you, and I hope there is a part two...Ok...I am with you, and I hope there is a part two to this post. How do we preach? What do we preach? What do we have if we don't have historical criticism? What about the "can of worm" we know as "infallibility and inerrancy" that so many of our more conservative friends adhere to and insist on? Just a few questions (sorry)...thank you for your great insight!William Thomas Dahlberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12121198581079283112noreply@blogger.com
