Oct 2019: K.J. Campbell Preaching Workshop

How does scripture shape our imagination to see the world differently and what does this mean for
preaching? Too often preachers get trapped in a documentary or moral or laissez faire reading of the
bible, which leads to informational, imperative or status quo preaching. What if we engaged with
scripture more playfully, by the grace of the Holy Spirit, and allowed it to reconfigure the world, the
context we see? What if preaching is not principally announcing the results of biblical excavation,
telling people to shape up and fly right, or accommodating gospel possibility to the context as it is
delivered by social scientific analysis? What if preaching is announcing the new creation that God
brings and is bringing in Christ and living toward that world in the power of the Holy Spirit?
Can you imagine that!
