Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Secrets and Strangers is a collection of short stories set in Europe, along the Mediterranean, in Prague, Washington, DC, Chicago, and in Southern Illinois. They are recounted by different narrators and from different perspectives: a young woman, a small boy, a gay man, a married man. Their inspirations come from fictionalized memories, snatches of overheard conversations, and imagined settings of very ordinary moments of emotional confrontation. They are unified in their exploration of ironic situations, where secrets and strangers meet and interact with surprising results. As a long-time practicing historian, I wrote these stories to resolve an intellectual dilemma, to reach beyond the categories of truth-telling that make history both a splendid, but limiting form of literature. I wanted to explore the insides of experience, the multiple meanings of memory, and the reactions of characters beyond the traces they have left in archives. And most of all, I wanted to try out new voices and perspectives, to see, feel, and record ordinary encounters from differing points of view. These stories, then, are true only in the sense that they are convincing--not that they reveal anything that actually happened or adherence to the facts. The joy of fiction-writing is liberation from that sort of truth and the immersion in another. And if they are successful, this will be their message.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - John Wesley was once asked why so many people came to hear him preach. His response was, 'When you set yourself on fire, people love to come and see you burn'. While the question pushed to understand why the masses were so intrigued with Wesley's pulpit, we might well ask today, what is really happening in our pulpits to capture the interest and the attention of today's listener If we were to survey local congregations, perhaps we would be surprised to learn how many people would like to see a little more fire burning in the pulpit on a Sunday morning! It presses us to ask what preaching is accomplishing in today's contemporary world. Is preaching waking people up or is it painfully lulling them to sleep Is preaching inspiring, motivating and reaching people where they are, or has the relevancy of this time-honored tradition within the Christian Church lost esteem and effectiveness Using these initial questions as a launching pad, the pages that follow seek to put the reality of the contemporary pulpit in conversation with a place in history where homiletical fires burned with notable intensity. Drawing from the richness of The Salvation Army's story, we reach back into the Victorian and Edwardian eras (1819-1930) to encounter the aggressive proclamation of a disturbing gospel.Is there still a place for confrontational preaching in the contemporary pulpit Does this approach to preaching help to address some of the very real challenges we are facing in engaging today's listener.
