Lectionary Tales for the Pulpit, Series IV, Cycle B

Fresh, imaginative stories are an essential element of the contemporary preacher's toolbox; they?re invariably what listeners connect with and remember. This collection of thought-provoking reflections is sure to help you create dynamic sermons that penetrate right to the heart of the scriptural witness. Gregory Tolle's contemporary parables remind us that God's grace is always present, especially in places and events we least expect to find it. An excellent source of preaching illustrations and ?sermon starters? that powerfully demonstrate how the Lord works in our daily lives. "Tolle offers contemporary and insightful illustrations ? as fresh as the morning's newspaper ? to bring the Biblical message to life. Used to supplement lectionary sermons or to spark spiritual and homiletic creativity, this book will enhance every minister's library." - William G. Grice III
