Feasting on the Word

In recent days, I have been working on various "touch ups" on contributions I wrote last summer that will be included in Westminster John Knox's new Lectionary Commentary, edited by David L. Bartlett and Barbara Brown Taylor. The first volume in this major new resource is due out in a few months, and I can't remember mentioning the project yet in this blog. One distinctive of the project is that it provides 4 separate 1,000 word essays on each of the 4 lectionary texts for each Sunday. That amounts to 16 4-page essays on each Sunday's preaching texts. To pre-order the first volume through Cokesbury for $31, click here. To pre-order it through Amazon for $40, click here. Once the first volume appears, hopefully we can begin to discuss it in this blog. Stay tuned...
