Year D

Hi Book Lovers!  It's been a while since I did a book review - and I'm sure you've been reading books like crazy.  I haven't stopped reading life just took a different direction but I'm hoping to be back to reviewing books.  I think I'll start with one I recently read and wrote on Google Book reviews -

Year D: A Quadrennial Supplement to the Revised Common Lectionary 

Front CoverWho is this written for: A nonfiction academic work written for pastors, educators, lay people, and homiletic (preaching) academics currently using the resource the revised common lectionary to preach / teach
 
Review: I highly recommend this book as a supplement for some and an addition for others using the three year revised common lectionary. Dr. Timothy Mathew Slemmons provides a thoughtful alternative to add into the current liturgical year specifically looking at passages that are neglected by the current revised common lectionary. For those looking for a completely new year of preaching / liturgical reflections Year D provides a delightful addition to your church year. 

About the Author: Dr. Timothy Slemmons is currently a professor at Dubuque Theological Seminary in Dubuque, Iowa.  He studied at Princeton Theological Seminary and has served as an ordained Presbyterian Pastor.
