The lively, inspiring memoir of an eminent Christian preacher and leader In this book one of today’s best-known Christian leaders recounts—with his signature wit and humor—memorable moments from his rich and full preaching life. A personal and vocational memoir, Will Willimon’s Accidental Preacher portrays the adventure of a life caught up in the purposes of a God who calls unlikely people to engage in work greater than themselves. Beginning with his childhood in a segregated South and moving through his student years, Willimon gives candid, inspiring, and humorous testimony to his experiences as a seminary professor, rural pastor, globe-trotting preacher, bishop, and popular theologian and writer. Above all, he shows how God has constantly had a call on his life. By turns poignant, hilarious, and thought-provoking—but always irresistibly engaging—Accidental Preacher is sure to join the well-remembered, classic memoir of our time.

In my first book, Jack Simon tries his best to "live it up"! In my second book, he tries his best to live his earlier life down! He is lucky he has Carleen for his wife. She is a true helpmate. Jack is unfaithful to her, yet she feels he is worth redeeming and strives to bring out the best in him. He is a big man with a small, glowing streak of kindness, whereas her father, the only other man she ever knew, is the opposite: a small man with a big, mean streak! It is, therefore, not as much of a shock to her when he decides to become a preacher as it is to everyone else who knows him! Such complete turnarounds are rare, but between Jack and Carleen, they pull it off as he becomes a beloved preacher in the Church of the Brethren, which they have picked at random!

The Accidental Preacher was written to honor the work of esteemed homiletics professor Dr. Rick Stern. The idea for this book demonstrates a mix of intention and chance. In the spring of 2017, Rick informed the dean of Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology in Indiana, Dr. Robert Alvis, of his intention to retire at the end of the next school year, after nearly 30 years of teaching students how to preach. When several of us heard this, we set out to think of a way to honor him and his numerous contributions to the seminary and to his field. A chance conversation led to this suggestion: "Why don't you have people contribute homilies and gather them into a book?" Some of those whose homilies are included in this book were previous students of Rick, while others are colleagues who have worked with him for years. All responded with an enthusiastic "yes," which is no accident, given their respect for him. Indeed, this book is a liber amicorum-a book of friends who wish to honor Rick and his work.

Clive Williams was once the Australian Government's best-kept secret. He was Indonesian President Soeharto's closest confidant and friend. Williams was not a spy or secret-agent, nor a confidence-man; he was simply thrust by circumstance into the most important position in the Australia-Indonesia relationship for more than three decades.Williams was always highly sought after by diplomats and journalists. How much did Williams know about Soeharto's ambitions to be President, and strategies to hold on to it? How did Williams explain the internal machinations of the Soeharto Government? What was the Australian Government learning from its own insider?No other Australian in a non-diplomatic capacity has been as influential on Australian foreign policy and international relations. This is the first of two volumes telling the story of the enigmatic Clive Williams - at once a missionary, English teacher, Presidential confidant, US intermediary, business power broker, cattle rancher and Australian back-channel diplomat.

Preachers Dare is adapted from Will Willimon’s Lyman Beecher Lectures on Preaching at Yale and is inspired by a quote from the great theologian Karl Barth. In a world in which sermons too often become hackneyed conventional wisdom or tame common sense, preachers dare to speak about the God who speaks to us as Jesus Christ. Willimon draws upon his decades of preaching, as well as his many books on the practice of homiletics, to present a bold theology of preaching. This work emphasizes preaching as a distinctively theological endeavor that begins with and is enabled by God. God speaks, preachers dare to speak the speech of God, and the church dares to listen. By moving from the biblical text to the contemporary context, preachers dare to speak up for God so that God might speak today. With fresh biblical insights, creativity and pointed humor, Willimon gives today’s preachers and congregations encouragement to speak with the God who has so graciously and effusively spoken to us.
