You can get it wherever books are sold (although it’s 37% off on Amazon right now!)

Thankful for this substantive conversation with Expositors Collective Mike Neglia Matthew D. Kim

Division, tension and conflict has always been part of life in a fallen world, but it feels as if it has only increased over the past years. How can preachers address contentious issues in a gracious yet truthful way? How can we balance the tightrope as we attempt to offering a unifying word to a divided congregation?

Drs Matthew Kim and Paul Hoffman offer seven steps towards preaching that a seven-step model for promoting reconciliation that unifies rather than causes unnecessary division

1. The Theological Step: The Sins of Pride and Prejudice

2. The Contextual Step: America's Past and Present Reality

3. The Personal Step: Facing Our Sin and Acknowledging Our Prejudices

4. The Positional Step: We Are Heralds, Not Heart-Changers

5. The Methodological Step: A Homiletic for Reconciliation and Unity

6. The Practical Step: Pre-Sermon, Mid-Sermon, and Post-Sermon Practices

7. The Categorical Step: Biblical Themes and Texts
