From a guest post by Ray S. Anderson at the Faith and Theology blog: Encountering the Word of God: against effective preaching
If one should dare to preach Word of God, be prepared to be exposed to the —naked— event of proclamation
As some of you know, in the PNCC the Word of God – in its proclamation and preaching is considered a sacrament. This post makes that point very well – trust in God to deliver His word through you – not your magical oratorial skills or props. By doing so we are led to an encounter with God’s transformative Word.
