Dem Dry Bones

Preaching, Death, and Hope

Edited by Rev. Luke A. Powery, Duke University ...

In an age when the so-called prosperity gospel holds sway in many Christian communities or the good news of Christ is reduced to feel-good bromides, it would seem that death has little place in contemporary preaching. Embracing the vision of the valley of dry bones in Ezekiel 37 as a metaphor for preaching in the Spirit, acclaimed homiletician Luke Powery asserts that death is the context for all ... Read more

Becoming Human

The Holy Spirit and the Rhetoric of Race

by Luke A. Powery ...

Discussions of racial difference always embody a story. The dominant story told in our society about race has many components, but two stand out: (1) racial difference is an essential characteristic, fully determining individual and group identity; and (2) racial difference means that some bodies are less human than others.The church knows another story, says Luke Powery, if it would remember it. ...

Spirit Speech

Lament and Celebration in Preaching

by Luke A. Powery ...

That the Holy Spirit is present in preaching is something we take for granted. How the Spirit is present is a question we seldom ask. Luke Powery suggests that we fail to ask that question to the detriment of our preaching. Drawing on the tradition of African American preaching, he locates the Spirit’s activity in the sermon in two primary places; First, in celebration, the joyous acceptance of ... Read more
