Drawing on both pastoral and scholarly experience, John Holbert offers a fresh approach to the preaching of a familiar scripture.
To be a Joban preacher, he says, is to draw on the pain and honesty inherent in the text. Holbert understands the preacher’s task as interpreting the whole of the book of job, not just the narrative and the poetry.
This integrative approach allows the book’s entire theology to inform sermons. Included for illustration are an embodied sermon and a narrative sermon based on passages from Job.
