Specificatii
Synopsis: Even though the postmodern return of religion is
dramatically shaping the future of twenty-first-century theology,
its riches for preaching are rarely mined. Preaching After God
highlights the trajectories of the postmodern return of religion by
introducing readers to the positive theological themes stirring in
the work of influential philosophers like Jacques Derrida, John
Caputo, and Slavoj i ek. Phil Snider shows how engaging their
thought provides possibilities for preaching that highly resonate
with postmodern listeners. Preachers familiar with the postmodern
return of religion will appreciate its homiletical appropriation,
while those introduced to it for the first time will discover just
how much it is helpful for the preaching task. Six lectionary-based
sermons are included as examples. Endorsements: There is a growing
industry of Christians attempting to domesticate the work of
radical thinkers to fit them into an already existing theological
system. Provocative writers are thus tied to a Procrustean bed by
religionists seeking to make them fit within an already established
religious dogma. Not so with Snider. Here he reads these vital
thinkers seriously and subtly, pouring their new wine into the old
wineskins. Why? So as to crack open the actually existing church
and help prepare the way for a new reformation. --Pete Rollins,
author of Insurrection In Preaching After God Snider adroitly shows
that postmodern theology will preach He mounts an impressive
argument that 'homiletics of the event' is the best way to reach a
world . . . He has an ear for postmodern theory and the gift of
telling us what preaching needs to be. A must read for theologians
and preachers alike. --John D. Caputo, author of What Would Jesus
Deconstruct? In this smart and readable book, Snider does the
spadework for a theology of preaching after the death of the
Christian God shaped by Western metaphysics. Influenced by John
Caputo's reading of Derrida, Snider discovers a constructive
homiletic emerging from the ashes of philosophical deconstruction .
. . His relentlessly positive approach to Derrida is refreshing,
and his homiletical ideas encourage a fundamental rethinking of
both our reasons for preaching and the messages we preach. --John
S. McClure, author of Otherwise Preaching In this grand-scale book,
Snider takes on the enormous task of rethinking homiletics in light
of postmodern thought, and comes up with a fresh and wonderful
preacher-sized proposal for speaking of God in times like ours. His
refreshing honesty and engaging style will kindle new hope in those
who secretly fear that preaching may be impossible in progressive
circles. His energy and delight in asking the big questions will
inspire others to do the same. A lively conversation-starter of a
book. --Anna Carter Florence, author of Preaching as Testimony
There has been a lot of talk about preaching over the past number
of years--debates about its viability and vitality in these
post-secular, interactive times . . . Snider ups the conversation
by inviting us to consider the influential and culture-shaping
world of continental philosophy, and offers us ways to incorporate
it into our communication. Snider doesn't want us to domesticate
these ideas. He wants us to use them to inform and frame a new way
of preaching, and a new way of thinking about life, God, church and
everything in between. --Barry Taylor, author of Entertainment
Theology Author Biography: Phil Snider is the Senior Minister of
Brentwood Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Springfield,
Missouri. His books include The Hyphenateds (2011) and Toward a
Hopeful Future (2010).
