<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Preach on difficult topics so that the message can be heard and transformative without damaging the pastor-congregation relationship.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Preachers increasingly see the need to deliver sermons that are "dangerous" in a variety of ways: the way they challenge hearers' comfort levels and challenge established powers and hierarchies. Author Frank Thomas helps readers understand those dangers--especially the forces of power and hierarchy that are so intrinsic in our everyday lives and in society as a whole. He teaches how to anticipate and navigate those forces, to open opportunities for dangerous preaching, and to mitigate negative impact on congregants, the preacher, and the preacher-congregation relationships.</p><p><em>Surviving a Dangerous Sermon </em>is a logical follow-up to Thomas's previous book, <em>How to Preach a Dangerous Sermon</em>. It equips preachers to say what must be said, in a way that it is heard, so that the sermon has a chance to do its work on human hearts, without negative consequences.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Frank A. Thomas currently serves as Nettie Sweeney and Hugh Th. Miller Professor of Homiletics and Director of the Academy of Preaching and Celebration at Christian Theological Seminary of Indianapolis, Indiana.
