Preaching to Connect Truth to Life: The Power of Narrative to Tell the Story

Preaching to Connect Truth to Life: The Power of Narrative to Tell the Story by Kelley, Benji. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780898275285.

How do we preach when they resent the "preachy"? And how can you proclaim objective truth to people who arent so sure there is such a thing? Pastor Benji Kelley calls todays professional and lay preachers back to a lost art in many pulpits: narrative preaching. While examining the strengths and effectiveness of all traditional preaching styles, he particularly shows how--in every form of preaching--story can profoundly connect truth to any life . . . especially for the majority of todays disconnected audiences. This book is a powerful tool for both veteran and beginning preachers who want to understand, empathize with, and relevantly engage the congregations of this day and age.
