Emotions are the Missing Exegetical Link

When we preach, the question is not if people will feel, but what they will feel. If we preach the emotions that are at the heart of the passage, then our congregations will feel what God intended. If we preach the emotions of our personality's choosing--or with no emotions at all--we misrepresent the text.

Discover the importance of biblical pathos and how to faithfully proclaim it through your preaching. In Passion in the Pulpit you'll also learn how to:

• recognize and appreciate the gift of Scripture's emotional coloring
• discern the biblical pathos using reliable exegetical steps
• make your sermons faithfully emotive while avoiding manipulation
• determine the appropriate limitations of emotional appeal
• use verbal, vocal, and visual techniques to convey the biblical emotional intent of the passage

Preaching what God says without also respecting how He said it is not an option. No matter the cost, we must preach with the passion God desires.
