Holidays come around every year. The older we get, the faster they come. And, the older we get, the less magical they often seem. Ministers struggle to find new and captivating angles on the stories that have been told and retold for centuries. The rest of us just struggle to find some meaning amid all the sensationalism that typically surrounds these holy days.
In The Truth is Sensational Enough, Jim Dant offers hope for both the preacher and the listener. Beginning with the season of Advent, Dant guides us to Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Holy Week, Easter and Pentecost. Added to these prominent holy days are sermons and thoughts for Saint Valentine’s Day,All Saints Day,national holidays, and even Stewardship Sunday!
Not in the holiday mood? No problem. The lessons and insights tucked into these pages would be welcomed on any day of your life.
The nature of these meditations is rooted in the author’s background. His faith background, however, is much broader than his geographic home. He was born to a Jewish mother, eventually christened into the Roman Catholic church, adopted as an elementary-age student into a Baptist family and finally educated at a Presbyterian seminary. It is from that rich background that he shares these stories and sermons with us.
