Paperback / softback

Description

In the midst of this worrying world, in the midst of all our anxieties, Jesus speaks a very simple word to us. "Don't be anxious," Jesus says. "I have come to lift up the lowly. I have come to fill the empty with good things."
-- from the chapter "I Fill the Hungry with Good Things"

In this volume of sermons from Richard A. Jensen, one will find stories that tie together the themes of the gospel texts for Pentecost, in a way that will help a preacher better present the readings to any congregation.

In Filling the Hungry with Good Things, Jensen's sermons based on Luke's gospel are shaped primarily in story form and explore his investigation of the relationship between storytelling and preaching. These stories can be helpful in many ways:
• Illustrations/sermon starters
• Bible study
• Personal devotions

Sermon titles included in this collection are:
• I Give You the Kingdom
• I Have a Plan For Your Life
• I Lift Up the Lowly
