Courageous Compassion

A wonderfully intelligent, forceful book, bringing together masterful sermons by noted preacher Jerry Taylor and responses by world-renowned scholars. Starting with ten of Taylor's best sermons including "The Curse of Babel," "They That Wait upon the Lord," "Alive to God," and "Courageous Compassion," go behind the scenes to rehear the specific circumstances that occasioned each message. Then learn as respected theorists, biblical scholars, and denominational leaders respond to each sermon, providing Scriptural analysis, notes on Taylor's homiletic insights, and further reflections from the tradition of Black preaching." Few books take the reader back to Bible as powerfully as Courageous Compassion, especially in our today's politically divided landscape. Listen to Taylor and hear God speaking to you with clarity and conviction.
