Feasting on the Word

With this popular new lectionary commentary series, Westminster John Knox Press offers one of the most extensive resources for preaching on the market today. The twelve volumes of the series will cover all the Sundays in the three year lectionary cycle, along with movable occasions. For each lectionary text, preachers will find four brief essays¿one each on the theological, pastoral, exegetical, and homiletical challenges of the text. They might focus on the Gospel text, for instance, by reading all four essays provided for that text, or they might explore connections between the Hebrew Bible, Psalm, Gospel, and Epistle texts by reading the theological essays for each one. Each lectionary year will consist of four volumes, one for the Advent and Christmas season, one for Lent and Easter, and one for each half of Ordinary Time.
