The Living Puplit -- Testimonials

Here is a magazine that is not your run-of-the-mill preacher's monthly. If you are looking for a periodical that takes the Sunday pericope and gives you a tidy exegetical spin on the passage, The Living Pulpit is not that kind of vehicle. If you want a resource that takes you through the church year and parcels out homiletical insights, be aware there are other helps in that process that are available. If you are needing helpful tools to assist you in the communication process, be reminded that there are other places in which you can find that kind of support. On the other hand, after having worked through about two year's of The Living Pulpit, I find that there hasn't been a single issue in which I did not find sound and solid exegetical assistance for my preaching; clear and convincing illustrative material; and profound insights into effective communication today. If you are looking to The Living Pulpit to give you something to ‘think about, feel about and do about,' then here is your magazine.

	"No other homiletical resource provides the motivational spark for igniting a preaching idea, the theological depth and critical social analysis for sermon application, as does The Living Pulpit. You can't afford to preach without it." J. Alfred Smith, Sr. Senior Pastor, Allen Temple Baptist Church, Oakland, Cal. Professor of Preaching, American Baptist Seminary of the West, Berkeley, Cal.

	Some preachers still know how to cook a real sermon. Avoiding canned goods, they select only the freshest ingredients, combining them inventively and allowing plenty of time for their flavors to blend The Living Pulpit is designed with those preachers in mind. You won't find packaged messages in its pages. Bon appetit!" Barbara Brown Taylor Episcopal Priest, Diocese of Atlanta Butman Professor of Religion and Philosophy, Piedmont College, Demorest, Ga.

	"Years of reading The Living Pulpit has given me wonderful insights into biblical material and some of the key theological questions of our time. On graduating from Princeton Theological Seminary, Rev. Dr. Eugene Carson Blake challenged our class by saying, 'Find fresh new ways to tell the old, old story of Jesus and his love!' The Living Pulpit helps me to do just that!" Dr. Thomas K. Tewell Senior Pastor, The Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church, New York City
