Whether seated in a pew or listening to something online about faith, most of the faith-talk people hear is shaped by a speaker’s faith sensibility. And those faith sensibilities can generally be distinguished as four distinctly different "voices" of preaching. Understanding what these voices are and how they differ is what this book is about. In this updated and expanded volume, the author canvases the tradition of preaching by drawing together religious, social, and cultural concerns that have given birth to each new North American way of communicating about faith in God. This is a book about why communicating the Gospel matters in whatever form it takes.
