Synopsis

Preachers increasingly see the need to deliver sermons that are "dangerous" in a variety of ways: the way they challenge hearers' comfort levels and challenge established powers and hierarchies. Author Frank Thomas helps readers understand those dangers--especially the forces of power and hierarchy that are so intrinsic in our everyday lives and in society as a whole. He teaches how to anticipate and navigate those forces, to open opportunities for dangerous preaching, and to mitigate negative impact on congregants, the preacher, and the preacher-congregation relationships.

Surviving a Dangerous Sermon is a logical follow-up to Thomas's previous book, How to Preach a Dangerous Sermon. It equips preachers to say what must be said, in a way that it is heard, so that the sermon has a chance to do its work on human hearts, without negative consequences.
