Summary: "The Preached God speaks directly to preachers, calling them to proclaim with conviction the truths of forgiveness, life, and salvation through both word and sacrament to all who listen." "Closely tying preaching to theology and vice versa, Forde argues that preaching itself is a sacrament and is, moreover, "God's election of the ungodly." These chapters provide a window into the way that Forde taught others to do the kind of preaching in which God himself is brought to hearers by word and sacrament. The book also provides, through a selection of Forde's own sermons, a model for pastors today and an inspiring look into the mind and preaching of one of the twentieth century's great theologians."--BOOK JACKET
