The Oxford Handbook of Christian Homiletics presents comprehensive scholarly essays that explore dimensions of Christian preaching understood as sophisticated public theology. Contributors craft insights from a panoply of methodological approaches, historical analyses of iconic preachers, and focal biblical-textual studies that address interpretive possibilities for homiletical praxis. In the first section, authors frame views of preaching through the lenses of hermeneutics, incarnational theology, performance studies, pneumatology, theopoetics, postcoloniality, affect theory, queer theory, trauma studies, aesthetics, and more. Terrains explored here include Asian American homiletics, Hispanic preaching in the United States, womanist preaching, preaching and indigeneity in Latin America, and preaching and the ecological crisis. In the second section are focused analyses of influential figures in the history of preaching, from John Chrysostom and Augustine to Hildegard of Bingen, Meister Eckhart, Martin Luther, Jonathan Edwards, Jarena Lee, Søren Kierkegaard, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Cecilio Arrastía, and Martin Luther King Jr. In the third section, contributors investigate themes of particular biblical books, foregrounding interpretive issues that are consequential for homiletical theory and praxis.
