<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>In our increasingly pluralistic and multicultural society, there is a need for preaching that is capable of crossing cultural boundaries and engaging multiple contexts. Jared Alcántara's exciting new work proposes an intercultural and improvisational account of preaching in conversation with the legacy of Gardner C. Taylor.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>As society becomes more culturally diverse and globally connected, churches and seminaries are rapidly changing. And as the church changes, preaching must change too. <em>Crossover Preaching</em> proposes a way forward through conversation with the dean of the nation's black preachers, Gardner C. Taylor, senior pastor emeritus of Concord Baptist Church in Brooklyn, New York. In this richly interdisciplinary study, Jared E. Alcántara argues that an analysis of Taylor's preaching reveals an improvisational-intercultural approach that recovers his contemporary significance and equips US churches and seminary classrooms for the future. Alcántara argues that preachers and homileticians need to develop intercultural and improvisational proficiencies to reach an increasingly intercultural church. <em>Crossover Preaching</em> equips them with concrete practices designed to help them cultivate these competencies and thus communicate effectively in a changing world.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Alcántara has offered valuable insights which will be of interest to any student of preaching.</p>--Michael Duduit, Preaching, Summer 2016<br><br><p>This is a worthwhile read: for preachers looking to expand their repertoire and inspire their preaching, for professors of homiletics looking to broaden their students' knowledge and skill set, and for anyone interested in the craft and future of preaching in an intercultural society and church.</p>--Kathleen Anderson, Touchstone, February 2018<br>
