The Reformed Imperative

The Reformed Imperative

John H. Leith

Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.
1988
nidottu
In the face of dramatic membership decline, John Leith calls on the church to say what no one else can say. Leith writes that too often sermons are moral exhortations which can be delivered more effectively at Rotary or Kiwanis clubs; or political and economic judgements on society presented with greater wisdom and passion at political conventions; or they offer therapies better provided by competent psychiatrists. He urges the church to use its only unique skill--the ability to interpret and apply the work of God through sermons, teaching, and pastoral care.

From Generation to Generation

From Generation to Generation

John H. Leith

Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.
1990
nidottu
Based on years of experience as a pastor and professor of theology, John Leith reflects on the dilemma of the church today as primarily "a crisis of faith." He states that renewal is found within Scripture and the tradition of a believing, worshiping community--in hearing the word of God, particularly in preaching, in teaching, in the sacraments, and in Christian conversation.

Crisis in the Church

Crisis in the Church

John H. Leith

Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.
1997
nidottu
Drawing on his wealth of experience as both a seminary professor and minister, John Leith identifies and confronts the contemporary crisis in theological education. He argues that the crisis in the seminaries is interwoven with the crisis in the church, and that the secularization of educational institutions has led seminaries to move away from their primary responsibility--preparing pastors for ministry.

Though probably best known for his scholarship on John Calvin, John Leith's work in the church and the academy has earned him honors in many areas.
