The Roundtable Pulpit: Where Leadership & Preaching Meet: Where Leadership and Preaching Meet - Softcover
Synopsis
Collaboration is one of the best ways to make a difference when leading a congregation. Now John S. McClure shows how collaborative preaching is the best way to inspire and guide a congregation. Most preachers use a sovereign leader-centered style or an inductive (consultative) style of preaching. John McClure shows why these styles are sometimes manipulative and ineffective: they do not take seriously the spiritual wisdom and tested experience that are present in God's people - the laity. In collaborative preaching, a revolving, expanding roundtable is established, where a pastor and as many as ten church members meet to discuss the concerns and ministries of the congregation. The pastor speaks prophetically each Sunday on behalf of this roundtable and honors the Holy Spirit who is at work among the whole people.

From the Author
A method for involving laity in sermon brainstorming.
Most preachers use a sovereign leader-centered style or an inductive (consultative) style of preaching. This book shows why these styles are sometimes manipulative and are often ineffective: they do not take seriously the spiritual wisdom and tested experience that are present in God's people - the laity. This book teaches a method for "collaborative preaching." In collaborative preaching, a revolving, expanding "sermon roundtable" is established in the congregation. The pastor and a small, periodically changing group of church members meet to discuss the concerns and ministries of the church in light of the biblical texts to be preached on Sunday morning. The pastor speaks prophetically each Sunday honoring the "lay theology" expressed at this roundtable.
John S. McClure is Frank H. Caldwell Professor of Preaching and Worship at Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. He is the author of The Four Codes of Preaching: Rhetorical Strategies (Fortress Press), Best Advice for Preaching (Fortress Press), and Telling the Truth: Preaching About Sexual and Domestic Violence (United Church Press).
