Overview

In his latest volume of sermons for the Common Lectionary (Revised), homilist Bruce Taylor has compiled more of his traditional and story form proclamations for the Sundays and feast days from Pentecost through Christ the King in Year B of the three-year lectionary cycle. Preached in various congregational settings, these sermons are theologically rich, sacramentally sensitive, biblically centered, and ecumenically minded, articulating God's love for all of creation and emphasizing the profound implications of discipleship as well as the urgency of compassionate and prophetic Christian witness in both word and deed. Truth Be Told, like its predecessors in Taylor's first and second journeys through the lectionary, will prove a welcome companion for preachers, educators, seminary students, and devotional readers, who will all find it to be an incisive and insightful exploration of the spiritual genius of the liturgical year and the unitive practice of preaching from common texts. The book exemplifies how preaching honestly and with integrity from Mark's Gospel and the accompanying lectionary readings can shape interaction with the elements of the liturgy to promote faithful Christian worship and prompt responsible Christian living.
