"""Romans is too often read and preached as abstract theology without sufficient reference to the contexts of its original and contemporary audiences. This volume alerts us to the variety-and the significance-of contextual interpretations of the letter. There is much to learn from these approaches, and this book as a whole reminds us that we all interpret and preach from particular places and spaces."" -Michael J. Gorman, professor of biblical studies and theology, St. Mary's Seminary & University ""The essays comprising Preaching Romans from Here provide a different sort of 'Romans Road' to guide Bible-readers. This volume takes seriously the reality of a Bible-reader's social location and demonstrates how biblical interpretation ought to involve a multiplicity of diverse voices. I've preached countless sermons over more than three decades of ministry and wish I had owned such a resource earlier in my career."" -Dennis R. Edwards, dean, North Park Theological Seminary"
