The Acceptable Year of the Lord: Preaching the Old Testament with Faith, Finesse and Fervour

The Acceptable Year of the Lord: Preaching the Old Testament with Faith, Finesse and Fervour
Hamilton, Karen
Novalis, 2008
ISBN: 978-2-8964-6032-8


A book for busy preachers who preach the 3-cycle common lectionary texts.

Karen Hamilton presents preaching insights into the meaning of the original Old Testament texts, the meaning they have in the Jewish tradition and their meaning for Christians today.

Hamilton wrote this book to address what she sees as a resource imbalance when it comes to the Old Testament. She includes a reference to each citation in the Revised Common Lectionary.

Readings are cross-related by liturgical calendar, as well as to scripture.

Karen Hamilton is the General Secretary to the Canadian Council of Churches.
