The Undoing of Death: Sermons for Holy Week and Easter
- Used Book in Good Condition
Heralded as one of today's finest preachers by such figures as Thomas Long, Ellen Charry, Annie Dillard, and Peter J. Gomes, Fleming Rutledge has repeatedly turned out collections of sermons that not only become best-sellers but also touch readers deeply.With The Undoing of Death Rutledge has done it once more. Representing twenty-five years of Holy Week and Easter preaching, this volume offers a wide-ranging vision of the cross and resurrection that incorporates the biblical themes of sacrifice for sin, vicarious suffering, victory over evil and death, and the new creation arising out of eternal love.Divided into seven sections that move readers through Holy Week from Palm Sunday to Good Friday to Easter and on through Eastertide, these well-crafted sermons consistently display Rutledge's unique ability to bridge the message of the ancient biblical texts with the distinct needs of our contemporary world. Whether read by preachers or by general readers seeking soul-nourishing wisdom on the central event of the Christian faith, The Undoing of Death will be a volume to turn to again and again.
