Resources for Leading worship
The text this week
This site features a wide variety of resources for study and liturgy based on the 3-year Revised Common Lectionary* cycle. The purpose of this website is to provide links to resources for study, reflection and liturgy which correspond to the RCL readings you may be using for study, teaching & preaching. At The Text This Week, you will find conveniently-organized links to a treasure of resources for study, reflection and liturgy pertaining to each week's lectionary texts - both as individual pericopes and as a group of readings within their liturgical setting -- a virtual study desk of sorts, laid out for your weekly exegetical work.
Working Preacher
Working Preacher is a ministry brought to you by Luther Seminary. The Working Preacher team believes that God uses good biblical preaching to change lives. We have enlisted hundreds of friends -- biblical scholars, theologians, homileticians and pastors dedicated to the craft of biblical preaching -- to provide you timely, compelling and trustworthy content.
On the site you'll find:
- exegetical material geared to the weekly lectionary (Preaching This Week)
- resources and insights on the Craft of Preaching blog
The consultation on common texts
