{"product_id":"lectionary-tales-for-the-pulpit-series-vi-cycle-c-9780788026225","title":"Lectionary Tales for the Pulpit, Series VI, Cycle C","description":"This volume is just what any pastor needs when looking for something special to spice up a Sunday sermon - it's full of imaginative and inspirational meditations that breathe new life into scripture texts from Cycle C of the Revised Common Lectionary. Leininger gives readers a new perspective on a passage from each week's assigned readings with a thought-provoking reflection that puts in the context of modern life. This is much more than just a source of stimulating sermon illustrations - it's also a treasure chest of devotional reading that will make any reader pause and reflect on God's wonderful hand at work in our daily activities. It's a must-have resource for any church library. Some of the intriguing chapters are: - The Speed Bump on the Road to Bethlehem - Silly Goose - Love Your Enemy? Are You Kidding, Lord? - Sonny Moneybags - The Judas Gene - The Forgiveness Business - Trouble in the Parsonage - Pax Christi or Pox Christi? - The Locust Years ...and many more  David E. Leininger had planned be a \"pastor out to pasture\" and retire from active ministry at the end of 2008, but God had other plans. Instead of chasing little white balls around a proverbial pasture, he is now the interim pastor of Dorchester Presbyterian Church in Summerville, South Carolina. He has previously served congregations in Pennsylvania, Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas. A graduate of Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary (M.Div) and Erskine Theological Seminary (D.Min.), Leininger is the author of six books: A Color-Blind Church; God of Justice: A Look at the Ten Commandments in the 21st Century; As We Believe, So We Behave: Living the Apostles' Creed; and three volumes of Lectionary Tales for the Pulpit. He has also been a contributing writer for the online services StoryShare and The Immediate Word (www.sermonsuite.com).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Leininger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CSS Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.59d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780788026225","brand":"CSS Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40130285600883,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_386d2b3c-e5e6-4574-9093-7cbb22e5d36c.jpg?v=1654089930","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/lectionary-tales-for-the-pulpit-series-vi-cycle-c-9780788026225","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
