The remembrancer stirs the memory of Christ-followers, reminding them of the truths they once heard and fanning the flames of faith. We live in an age of forgetfulness, so when knowledge fades and conviction cools, the church needs to be reminded of the great truths of the faith. When done well, preaching as reminding is not empty, perfunctory repetition. Rather, it is the work of soul-watchers. <em>Preaching as Reminding</em> describes the dynamic role of the remembrancer, who prompts thankfulness and repentance, raises hope, fosters humility and wisdom, exhorts obedience, and encourages community. With decades of preaching experience, Arthurs explains how to stir memory through vivid language, story, delivery, and ceremony. He urges preachers to take up this task with buoyancy and hope because the Lord God has commissioned and equipped them to serve as the Lord's remembrancers.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>A preacher is more than just a teacher of God's Word. Included in this heralding is the task of <em>reminding</em>. Jeffrey Arthurs's <em>Preaching as Reminding</em> calls preachers to be the Lord's 'remembrancers, ' backing this designation with sound biblical theology and solid neuroscientific studies on how memory works. While people are prone to wander and forget God, Arthurs offers preachers practical guidelines for stirring memory through the use of rhetorical style, story, non-verbal delivery, ceremony, and symbols. Seasoned and starting soul-watchers who are serious about their sacred craft should heed Arthurs's call and sit under him.</p>--Desmond Soh, CT Pastors, July 3, 2018<br><br><p>Arthurs' contribution to the field of homiletics cannot be ignored. His unique and important discovery of this lacunae of homiletical study is worth acknowledging and celebrating.</p>--Scott M. Gibson, Africanus Journal, Vol. 11, No. 1<br>
