Things That Kings Can't Do: And Other Sermons from Judges through 2nd Kings, and the Wisdom Books

More about the book

THINGS THAT KINGS CAN'T DO is a collection of two dozen sermons drawn from the early days of Israel as a people living (often problematically) in the land their God had promised and provided them. There are sermons from the early days of Israel becoming a nation-state, with the individuals and families who were key in God’s ongoing plan for His people. And there are sermons from Israel’s long tradition of reflecting on what it meant to be God’s special people.The book provides all the texts for the sermons, and contains a number of valuable indices identifying Revised Common Lectionary readings, and listing extensive biblical references in biblical order. THINGS THAT KINGS CAN'T DO is one of 11 volumes of sermons published or in preparation by the author.
