Preaching from the Cross Paul’s Theology of Proclamation Frank J. Matera
Frank Matera explores Paul’s understanding of his own preaching and relates Paul’s theology of proclamation to preaching today.
“Focusing on the why, what, and how of Paul’s preaching, Matera presents comprehensive theses for integrating Paul’s gift of preaching into a necessary challenge for incisive and active homiletics today.” —Sherri Brown, Creighton University “Anyone who reads and absorbs this small but significant—and deeply spiritual— book will be a better interpreter of Paul the preacher and a better preacher of the powerful gospel of the cross and resurrection that Paul proclaimed.” —Michael J. Gorman, St. Mary’s Seminary & University
Frank J. Matera (PhD, Union Theological Seminary, Richmond) is professor emeritus of The Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, where he taught New Testament for many years.
