The Fire Within - Sermons from the Edge of Exile (Paperback)

The title suggests that the author was burning to say what he felt should be said. And he continued to do that when opportunities presented themselves and from the platform that he knows best, namely the pulpit. Through this publication, the contents of his sermons become available to a broader audience. These sermons have meaning for all of us. To students, they teach us how to interface the context of the Biblical text with the contemporary context in order to give meaning to our existence now. To pastors and preachers, they illustrate how to dialogue with the text in order to extract from it the fullest potential and wealth of meaning contained in it. To the ordinary reader, it confirms that the gospel message remains a message of hope and inspiration, irrespective of how depressing one's personal situation may be or how incomplete we may experience society. Whoever reads them cannot but be spiritually enriched and motivated.
