  Show And Tell Cycle A

  $18.68

  In each of Sunday’s assigned lectionary readings — The First, Second, and Gospel lessons — we are invited to view the glorious narrative of scripture through three different, yet harmonious, perspectives. In the first reading, the congregation returns to the heritage of our faith as described in the Old Testament, as well as in the New Testament book of Acts. We travel with the children of Israel as they take their first steps in faith, reliving the highs and lows of that journey with them. Through studying this part of scripture, we can see our own journey of faith played out by an entire nation.

  Show-and-Tell guides us through some of the earliest accounts in the Bible in Genesis and Exodus, as well as the prophetic words of Isaiah and Ezekiel. During the Easter season, the first readings also explore the beginnings of Christianity as recounted in Acts. By taking us back to the beginning, Dr. Everett offers insight and encouragement into how we can live out our faith today.

  This collection of sermons is a valuable resource for:
  Sermon starters and illuminating illustrations
  Gaining a new homiletical perspective to the lectionary
  Offering a newer, deeper understanding and appreciation of scripture
  Using as a starter for adult Bible study groups or personal devotions

  Where Is God In All This Cycle C

  $16.18

  Dr. Tony S. Everett provides us with a series of life-related sermons on the Old Testament lessons … the sermons are biblically and theologically responsible, not sacrificing the message for relevance … If I were in the pew I would be drawn to listen to this preacher and his examples and words would follow me into the week! (From the Foreword)

  Tony Everett’s stirring messages are as interesting to read as they would be to hear. He is a brilliant wordsmith with a keen insight into the needs of people and the ability to address God’s word to those needs.

  It is easy for us to seek “quick-fix” solutions to challenges of declining attendance, shrinking income, and disappearing volunteers. We search in futility for simple techniques that promise the moon. Unfortunately we soon discover that these gimmicks are like the River Platte in Nebraska; a mile wide, but only an inch deep. Invariably such feeble solutions flash for a brief time, then crash in chaos. (From the Introduction)
