Sara’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Calling of Emily Evans (Women of the West Book #1)

The Calling of Emily Evans (Women of the West Book #1) by Janette Oke

22 highlights

“What is preaching? It is proclamation, not just moralizing. It is Good News, not just good advice; it is gospel, not just law. Supremely, it is about God and what he has done, not just about us and about what we ought to do.”
― Ian Pitt-Watson, A Primer for Preachers

“At the heart of it, preaching is the telling and retelling of Christ's story and our stories from creation to parousia. It is the remembering of the stories with a special kind of remembrance of which the Bible speaks (Old Testament zakar, New Testament anamnesis), a remembrance that does not merely call to mind the thing remembered, but that makes it real, present, potent, and demanding here and now.”
― Ian Pitt-Watson, A Primer for Preachers
