Description
Summary:The author offers insights on preaching with reference to selected verses in the books of Jeremiah, Psalm, I Corinthians and Luke in the Holy Scripture. He explains what he calls the two temptations in the church, namely, the tendency to consider religion as a concept belonging to the past and the tendency to consider it as belonging to the future. He notes that faith is not simply a celebration of history. He encourages people to think of God in the present instead of the past and the future.
