The Sound of Scripture: Reading the Bible Aloud - A Brief Guide for Lay Readers
This book is designed as a guide for readers who want to become more confident and effective in communicating the meaning of God s Word clearly to listeners. Reading scripture aloud involves a great many considerations by the reader: knowledge and understanding, faith, respect, spirit and heart, vocal skill, and physical control. Though reading individual words on the printed page might seem an easy task, communicating the profound meaning of the words clearly can be an exciting challenge. Lay readers and lectors are here given a simple process to follow when preparing their readings so they feel comfortable reading with variety, expressiveness, and, most of all, with clear understanding.

Teaching the Bible in the Parish (and Beyond)
These lectures raise awareness about the various ways the church has traditionally interpreted the Bible and explores a mixture of contemporary approaches to scriptural interpretation. Five ELCA scholars were invited to offer lectures out of their particular perspectives and scholarship. Each lecturer traveled to three sites where each delivered major presentations exploring important and innovative Lutheran perspectives on biblical interpretation, making a case for the promise of one, some, or even all of them.

Preaching Christ in a Pluralistic Age: Sermons by Carl E. Braaten
Many of the sermons in this volume challenge the pluralistic theology of religion that effectively nullifies the Great Commission to preach the gospel to all the nations. These sermons are mostly didactic, doctrinal, and unabashedly Christocentric. In the long run the only thing that will sustain the church through is firm confidence in the biblical truth that God revealed himself in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
