Intimacy has multiple meanings for preaching. It affirms the crucial role a messenger has in the message. It is the quality that helps to establish a relationship between the hearer and the speaker. It is a “holistic” approach to preaching. Designed to help both the student and the practicing minister communicate more effectively, Preaching and Intimacy begins with the preacher as a person before moving through the components that are essential to preaching. Preaching and Intimacy gives attention to a minister’s relationship with God, his/her feelings about himself/herself, how to imaginatively engage a biblical text, how to think of the listeners, and how to use these tools to address and deliver a sermon. Emphasis is put on the preacher’s investment in the sermon so that when it is spoken, it is authentic and real.

Preaching & Intimacy: Preparing the Message and the Messenger

Leadership Is a Combination of Art and Science Effective leaders are people who are always studying their strengths and weaknesses and examining the strategies that can make them better in what they do. They realize that change is possible, but also that most change is hard. Transformational leadership involves acquiring the skills and knowledge to help create positive change in the world around us. But it also involves a deep look within. Transformation is a continuous process that forces leaders to examine themselves and ask in what ways do we need to allow God to change us so that we become more compassionate, caring people? In Transformational Leadership, pastor and author Charles Bugg warns us that this journey is not for the faint of heart. It is not for those who believe leadership is merely learning a set of skills. Transformational leadership is the call to allow God to change us, the church, and the church’s calling to the world.

Transformational Leadership: Leading with Integrity

Leadership is a treacherous journey, and only the bravest people book passage for the trip. In I’m Trying to Lead . . . Is Anybody Following?, Charles B. Bugg, author of Transformational Leadership, offers ministers and church leaders a roadmap for guiding congregations. Rather than offering the false promise of “seven easy steps,” however, Bugg provides us with a view of leadership that has theological integrity, honors the diversity of church members, and reinforces the brave hearts of church leaders who offer vision and take risks in the service of Christ and the church.
