I wholeheartedly welcome Race, Preaching and Ricoeur for such a time as this! In a world where preaching on race faces formidable resistance, this is a welcome gift to the field of homiletics. There are only a few books that bring race and preaching into conversation but there is no collective volume like this addressing race and preaching by constructively engaging Paul Ricoeur’s work, a unique source of insight. In addition, readers will be delighted to have a few chapters featuring sermons with the commentaries. This showcases the book’s commitment to a rigorous homiletical integration of theory and practice.
