Preaching on the Common Worship Lectionary

A guide to preaching on the Common Worship Lectionary, covering the whole three-year cycle, concentration on the lections for the principal service, and the major saints' days. It provides, for each Sunday's principal service, a focus verse from one of the readings and notes on how to link the four readings. The focus is on the readings but the author includes illustrations and reflections on the everyday life offering the preacher a number of jumping-off points. She sees the main aim of preaching as being to encourage people. A "how-to" section at the beginning of the book contains advice for those new to preaching.
