Summary:	The real question for homiletics is our increasingl postmodern , post-Christian contexts is not how we are going to prevent preaching form dying but how we are going to help it die a good death. Preaching was not made to live. At most, preaching is a witness, a sign, a crimson X marking a demolition site. The church has developed sophisticated technologies to give preaching the semblance of life, belying the truth: preaching was born under a death sentence. it was born to die. Only when preaching embraces its own death is it able to truly live"--back cover.
