![]() So here it is!! The much anticipated book list for my Finding Your Voice: A Course on Preaching Offered this summer online at Anderson University, beginning May 30, 2013. This course is open to Anderson University School of Theology students and non students. For more information on how to enroll click here. The course is dedicated to helping preaching persons develop skills in reading life and communicating grace; strengthening the spiritual muscles needed to sift through what seems mundane and profane in search of the sacred. This is an experience in shimmering words and haunting images where we acquaint ourselves with the groaning’s of this world and the need for visions of hope and light in our darkness. Barbara Brown Taylor, The Preaching Life (Lanham, Maryland: Cowley), 1993. George Martin, Game of Thrones: A Song of Fire and Ice, Book 1 (New York: Bantam), 2010. Lauren Winner, Still: Notes on a Mid Faith Crisis (New York: Harper), 2012 Will Willimon, Preaching Master Class: Lesson’s From Will Willimon’s Five Minute Preaching Class (Eugene, OR: Cascade), 2010 Texts will be augmented by numerous podcasts and primary sources from early mystics such as Hildegaard, Julian of Norwich, Teresa of Avila and John of Chrysostom. Students will experiment with different preaching styles in order to find the one that fits and work to understand the office of preacher as midwife, enduring with others to help them birth forth new life in hearts, homes, and communities.
