Many of the writers are participants in the Peer Groups or the Coaching Program, but other voices are welcome as well.

Preaching advice reminds us to keep the Bible in one hand and the newspaper in the other. I’ve taken that to heart, with my other hand consulting mainstream and alternative print and online media. My other hand consults volumes and online commentaries. This hand clips articles and essays.
Part of my passion for preaching is a passion for paying attention. Paying attention to the text, one’s inner life, and events in the world, is a key skill of the preacher.
