Life Woven into God

“Sermons take many forms even by one preacher, as do these. No matter what form, however, sermons lose something in print because their nature is to be proclaimed in sound. A reader therefore may approach a book like this with some suspicion. Be not afraid. You will be edified, maybe occasionally surprised. These are worth reading. They are skillfully crafted, faithful to the gospel, and avoid sectarian temptations by following the Revised Common Lectionary.”

“A purple-haired homeless girl who offers hospitality to a stranger; a cautious member of the Sanhedrin whose old certainties are disrupted by a Nazarene rabbi; a generous boy who volunteers his loaves and fishes to feed a multitude, forgetting that his mother needed that food for his family: Bruce Taylor introduces us to a heartwarming cast of characters in this engaging collection of sermons crafted from the full range of lectionary texts for each week.”
