Presents thirty-five sermons from around the globe given in the same year by Baptist preachers. These sermons demonstrate, as Joel Gregory argues, that the act of preaching lies at the heart of Baptist identity - possibly rivaling the practice of believers' baptism.

Baptist Preaching comprises thirty-five sermons from around the globe given in the same year by Baptist preachers. These sermons demonstrate, as Joel C. Gregory argues, that the act of preaching lies at the heart of Baptist identity - possibly rivaling the practice of believers' baptism. The sermons collected here represent varied voices, multicultural contexts, and global concerns that occupy Baptists worldwide. The sermons thus give living witness to how Baptists wrestle with cultural issues confronting their respective churches. From Latin and South America to Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe, Baptist Preaching celebrates the diversity of global Baptist proclamation while simultaneously highlighting the near-sacramental role of preaching in Baptist churches.

Joel C. Gregory is Professor of Preaching at George W. Truett Theological Seminary, Baylor University
