God With Skin On: Cycle C Sermons for Advent/Christmas/Epiphany Based on the Gospel Texts

In these nineteen Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany gospel sermons, pastors can find ways to help expose to their congregations the truth that can transform the world: living a life that serves as light and hope.

Reverend Andrews says "it is a privilege and joy to reveal a God with skin on -- a fleshy word that gets up off the pages of the Bible and walks into our lives."

God With Skin On for Cycle C by Susan Andrews will help any pastor looking for:

• fresh homiletical approaches to the lectionary texts

• preaching illustrations

• a clearer understanding of scripture passages

• adult study and discussion groups

• personal devotions and Bible study on each Sunday's readings.

Some of the sermon titles in this book are:

• The Future Present (Luke 1:39-45 [46-55])

• How Intelligent Is God's Design? (Matthew 2:1-12)

• Holy Happiness (Luke 6:17-26)
