Reinhold Pieper: Evangelical Lutheran Homiletics, Gebunden

Klappentext

This translation of Reinhold Pieper's Evangelical Lutheran Homiletics offers a fuller understanding of the history of preaching within the LCMS as typified by C. F. W. Walther. Pieper, a student of Walther who would serve as homiletics professor and president of Concordia Preachers' Seminary from 1891-1914, dissects the task of preaching from start to finish as inspired by the classic German homiletics textbook by J. J. Rambach.

Within this work, Pieper outlines the following aspects of the preaching process, all while affirming the necessity of a "strictly textual" sermon. Meditation on the text
Outlining and writing the sermon
Memorizing the sermon
Accounting for the preacher's personal style
And much more.

This, the first official homiletics textbook for use in the LCMS, is an invaluable resource for any pastor or seminary student who wishes to gain a better understanding of thought and practice of Lutheran homiletics.
