The Path to the Pulpit: Four Ancient Questions for Faithful Preaching by Andrew Hébert and Mitchell L. Chase is available now!
Faithful preaching begins with faithful interpretation of God’s Word. In The Path to the Pulpit, Andrew Hébert and Mitchell L. Chase draw from the rich history of Christian interpretation to offer pastors and ministers a practical framework for sermon preparation. The authors guide preachers through four essential questions: What does the text say? How does it connect to the gospel and exalt Christ? How does it shape me as a disciple? How does it stir hope for the future? By asking these questions, preachers can better understand the meaning of Scripture, see its connection to Christ, apply it to their own lives and congregations, and proclaim the hope found in God’s promises. This book offers a time-tested path from the biblical text to faithful proclamation.

I'm stoked about my friend @mwesterholm's book Biblical Worship: A Christ-Centered Practical Theology.

I wrote my dedication to my friend @1689Dogmatician, who exhibits devotion to the Scripture and sound doctrine for God's glory.

Preaching is a sacred responsibility. Preachers think about meaning and application, authority and formation, present trials and future glories.
Every Monday, the preacher walks the path toward Sunday, ready to herald, once again, the riches of Christ.
@drandrewhebert and I wrote this book (from @BHAcademic) to encourage those who proclaim the Word. We want to encourage you through reflections on history, hermeneutics, and homiletics.
The book's aim is both doxological and practical. We wanted to stir your joy and boldness in the privilege of preaching, for the glory of God. And we wanted to cover various angles and questions in how to approach the Text.
We hope this book will bless you and further equip you for the study and proclamation of the Word!

Huge congrats to @RonniKurtz on his excellent book Theology for Life: A Joy-Filled Introduction to Christian Doctrine (published by @ReadBakerBooks)!
Every week, faithful preachers want their congregations to feast on the Lord's Word. But who is sufficient for these things?
So we place our sermon in the hands of Christ, the same hands that multiplied bread and fish. We know that He can take a sermon and feed a multitude.

“Reading a God-breathed book is both thrilling and dangerous, especially for preachers. It is thrilling because there is no other book in the world like the Bible. Its utter uniqueness is part of what Christians assert.
But given the kind of book it is, reading it is also dangerous. If readers treat it flippantly or if interpreters try to bend its teachings to conform to their agendas, such disregard for what Scripture says is an affront to the God who breathed its words.
When we take seriously the truth of Scripture as a God-breathed book, we will do our best to interpret it faithfully. And preachers will do their very best to discern the intent of the biblical authors. Since God has inspired the words of those authors, the meaning of those words matters more than any other words in the world.”
—@mitchellchase and @drandrewhebert
Lots of good stuff from @mitchellchase and @drandrewhebert in their new book “The Path to Preaching.”
One such example:
“The New Testament authors teach us how to read and understand the Old Testament, including how to see Christ there….when we discern Christological types in Old Testament passages that the New Testament authors didn't identify as typological, we are simply imitating the hermeneutic of the apostles. We are seeking to read the Old Testament as they did. The hermeneutic of the apostles is from Jesus, their writings are inspired, and so their interpretation of the Old Testament is entirely trustworthy and accurate.”

If you think the hope of Christmas began in Matthew, you missed it by 39 books. The Old Testament is full of patterns and prophecies of the Christ. Genesis prophesies joy for the world, because a promised son would bring blessing and salvation to the nations.
One of the most glorious aspects of the Old Testament is how much it pictures the person and work of the Lord Jesus.
This Advent season, why not spend time seeing the ways that the Old Testament is full of Christ?
My book There Shone a Holy Light: Beholding Christ and Christmas in the Old Testament (published by @Christian_Focus) is a 25-day devotional book that guides you through the season of Advent.
Looking for a devotional to use with your family? Wanting to hand out Advent materials to your church or small group? Consider There Shone a Holy Light. And now is the time to plan, because we’re still in the first half of October. Advent begins November 29th this year.
At the Westminster Bookstore online, you can get copies (and use “CHASE” as a promo code for your total to go even lower). They’re available on Amazon too.
If you know someone looking for a resource like this, I hope you’ll point them to it.

How awful!
I am sure will be insightful as Alan's work always is, but it gives me pause about ordering anything from OUP ever again. buymeacoffee.com/ayjay/the-l…
