Reseña del libro "Training the Called Woman To Teach and Influence (en Inglés)"
Training the Called Woman to Teach and Influence is a training manual to empower women to teach God's Word effectively within one's own church settings--in Bible studies, Sunday School classes, as part of preaching teams or for retreats. Many women speakers today are gifted story-tellers and entertainers, but have not been trained or challenged to keep the Word of God as the central agent of transformation in their messages. This manual will challenge both trainer and trainees to keep God's Word as the pivotal training instrument for all speaking arenas because . . . "God speaks through the Bible. It is the major tool of communication by which He addresses individuals today," states Hadden Robinson, a distinguished professor of preaching. John Killinger, a professor at Princeton Theological Seminary agrees. "The greatest preachers have always been lovers of the Bible. Those who have based their preaching on other texts--on the poets, current events, the media, or their own opinions--have passed quickly from the scene, as though their ministries were established in quicksand. The ones who built their sermons on great biblical ideas and passages have lingered in our memories. It is not that they were more original than others--the opposite is likely to be true--but there is something about the Scriptures, something capable of rescuing even mediocre homiletical minds from transience and obscurity." This manual has been designed to be a step-by-step workbook used by individuals, by a trainer with a group of aspiring speakers, or for a group to work through together without a trainer. Some have described this manual as one-stop shopping for training women to speak as all the tools for one's tool kit can be found within its pages--biblical tools, how to outline, illustrate, put it all together, deliver, recover and stay focused on one's own unique God-given teaching style.
