A letter from the editors about the use of Feasting on the Word during the Season after Pentecost (Ordinary Time). Click here to read.
Unlike commentaries that offer only one perspective on the assigned texts for the day, this series will offer four distinct viewpoints on each of the four assigned texts, giving preachers sixteen different approaches to the proclamation of the Word on any given occasion.
For each lectionary text there are four brief essays from top scholars, preachers, and writers—one each on the exegetical, theological, pastoral, and homiletical challenges of the text. Writers and editors include Kathleen Long Bostrom, Walter Brueggemann, John M. Buchanan, Kenneth H. Carter, Beverly Roberts Gaventa, Michael L. Lindvall, Thomas G. Long, Martin E. Marty, Nora Tubbs Tisdale, William H. Willimon, Lauren Winner, and Philip J. Wogaman.
With a Scripture index in each volume, the series is ideal for lectionary and nonlectionary preachers, as well as teachers and students.

"When it comes to feasting on the Word, we preachers have learned that there are no better guides than Barbara Brown Taylor and David Bartlett. As editors of this series, they have selected some wonderful interpreters of the Word to serve as our guides into the strange new world of the Bible. A wonderful resource in the weekly task of serving up the Word to God's hungry people." -William H. Willimon, United Methodist Bishop and author
