{"product_id":"preaching-and-intimacy-charles-b-bugg-9781573122634","title":"Preaching and Intimacy: Preparing the Message and the Messenger","description":"Intimacy has multiple meanings for preaching. It affirms the crucial role a messenger has in the message. It is the quality that helps to establish a relationship between the hearer and the speaker. It is a \"holistic\" approach to preaching. Designed to help both the student and the practicing minister communicate more effectively, \u003ci\u003ePreaching and Intimacy\u003c\/i\u003e begins with the preacher as a person before moving through the components that are essential to preaching. \u003ci\u003ePreaching and Intimacy\u003c\/i\u003e gives attention to a minister's relationship with God, his\/her feelings about himself\/herself, how to imaginatively engage a biblical text, how to think of the listeners, and how to use these tools to address and deliver a sermon. Emphasis is put on the preacher's investment in the sermon so that when it is spoken, it is authentic and real.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles B.
