Description
Preaching the Principal Festivals focuses homiletically on the six primary theological festivals of the church year, sometimes described as the principal festivals: Christmas, Epiphany, Easter, Ascension, Pentecost, and Holy Trinity. Central to the complicated development of lectionaries over the centuries, these festivals have anchored the church year, primarily because they are specifically enunciated in biblical materials.
