The all-age talk
is a task guaranteed to give preachers sleepless nights! Very few people feel
they have a gift for it, and most lack confidence. This reflective and
practical guide addresses these concerns, and aims to build a sure
theological understanding, develop skills and grow confidence.
Twelve chapters explore different kinds of engagement - with the senses, with one another, with
oneself, with scripture, with liturgy, with the church, with God, with
challenging situations, and more – to enable preachers make real connections
with their listeners, whatever the
age.
Each chapter is followed by a practical case study illustrating key principles
and providing down-to-earth, tried and tested wisdom for all kinds of
contexts and occasions. |
