Blood And Life: Sermons On The Old Testament By Michael Kasting, Francis Rossow
Blood And Life: Sermons On The Old Testament By Michael Kasting, Francis Rossow
Concordia Journal
Kasting’s sermons do more than delight—they are “the power of God for our salvation.” I sometimes quip to my homiletics students, “Anyone can write an occasional good sermon; the trick is to write a good sermon time after time.”

The following sermon was preached by the Reverend Roger B. Kronmann, pastor of Bethany Lutheran Church, St. Louis, Mo.

Pastor Kronmann also participated in the celebration of the sacrament. Those who heard the sermon and took part in the service asked that the sermon appear in this journal as one indication of our joy in this new manifestation of Christian fellowship.
The Gospel And Life In Preaching, Andrew M. Weyermann
The Gospel And Life In Preaching, Andrew M. Weyermann
Concordia Theological Monthly
With a twinkle in his eye and skepticism in his voice a clergyman asked recently, "What, in your opinion, is a good sermon?" One almost despairs of giving an answer. There are so many styles of preaching and so many different kinds of people listening that it appears hopeless to try to give a definition of good preaching which would hold true for everyone in every situation. Even the so-called experts often do not agree. Every seminary has its tales of students who submit the same sermon to two homiletics professors and receive contradictory criticisms from them. The faithful often …

Preaching For The Church (Review), Arthur C. Repp, George W. Hoyer
Concordia Theological Monthly
In spite of their preoccupation with preaching most pastors are not particularly interested in books about preaching. Sermon books are more promising. They can offer valuable ideas, give a few practical hints now and then, present a stimulating model, and not infrequently suggest an outline to the harried pastor. But a book on homiletics at best seems to promise a review of those principles which every seminary graduate ought to know. If he no longer remembers them, they probably were not very helpful anyway. After all, one learns to preach by preaching.
Preaching In Lent, Richard R. Caemmerer
Preaching In Lent, Richard R. Caemmerer
Concordia Theological Monthly
In one sense Lenten preaching needs no special focus. Preaching should be just that in every season of the Christian year, the good news of the grace of God in Jesus Christ. In the weeks which the church through many centuries has set apart for the special consideration of the suffering and death of Jesus Christ, this preaching should be especially vigorous and explicit.

The Sermon And The Propers, Harry G. Coiner
Concordia Theological Monthly
There are at least three major considerations connected with this noble work of Pastor Lindemann which should be shared at the outset with the reader of this review. They are (1) the liturgical church (especially the Lutheran Church) needs these volumes; (2) the worship of the church will be blessed by the use of the material in them; and (3) these volumes represent a living gift which one, who now is with the saints triumphant, wished with all his heart to bequeath to the church on earth.

This festival is known also as the Theophany, the Manifestation of God; the Feast of the Three Kings; and Twelfth - or in Lutheran Sweden, as Thirteenth - Day. A large· section of the church still observes it as the Christmas Festival. In a degree it must be associated with Christmas, but there is a distinct advance in its teaching. The Babe of Bethlehem is revealed as God, the splendor of the divine glory bursting through the humanity. The feast is the complete fulfillment of Advent, the highest point of the Christmas cycle.

When Jesus had called unto Him His twelve Apostles, He said, "As ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand," Matt.10:7. After having completed His work of the sinners' redemption and before He ascended to heaven, Jesus repeated His commission, saying, "Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved," Mark 16:15-16; "Ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto …
Lutheran Preaching And Its Relation To The Audience, Richard R. Craemerer
Lutheran Preaching And Its Relation To The Audience, Richard R. Craemerer
Concordia Theological Monthly
Persuasive public speech demands the close relation between the speaker and his audience. This fact is true also of preaching. The most common complaint against preaching is that the preacher does not adequately reach the attention and will of his hearer. The first and last need of preaching is that it bring the Word and will of God to the hearer; it must bear witness to Christ, it must teach the Word. To do that, it must not merely be true and Scriptural, but it must actually engage the hearer's interest.

The Art Of Illustrating The Sermon, Karl H. Ehlers
Concordia Theological Monthly
Introduction: The sermon's the thing-more than anything else in our ministry. ''Nothing contributes so much to keeping the people with the church as a good sermon," declares the Apology of our Augsburg Confession. If those were right who say that a pastor ought to devote one hour of preparation for every minute of preaching, it would follow that at least one half of his working hours are to be spent upon it. This is an exaggeration, which, nevertheless, serves a good purpose in emphasizing that none of us devotes too much time to his sermon preparation and many too little. …
