Bøker av Robert Lee Hill

How is it possible for life to be affirming, religion to be relevant, and our daily human journey to be full of hope in times so riddled with division, cynicism, and negativity?In Life is to Be Celebrated, Robert Lee Hill responds to that overarching question with 52 messages born out of his experience as a pastor and community leader. In these pages, clergy, laypersons, and spiritual seekers will find positive guidance and inspiration for living lives marked by goodness, joy, love, and celebration.FROM THE FOREWORD: "If there were a Hall of Fame for Preachers, Robert Lee Hill would certainly be included. These fifty-two sermons exhibit the best of contemporary preaching with respect to spirit, theological acuity, timeliness, concern for justice, human insight, homiletical variety, evocative language, and poetry. I do not know of a contemporary preacher who has a better eye and ear for just the right word, for the expressive phrase that opens up a fresh perspective on the world, for the sentence that makes me think, 'Oh, why did I not think to say it that way?' I do not know of a book on preaching that better brings a life-giving theology to our time. I hope it receives the wide readership that it deserves. And I hope that wherever it is read, it sparks celebrations of life." - Ronald J. Allen, Professor of Preaching, and Gospels and Letters, Emeritus, Christian Theological Seminary, Indianapolis
