Exploring the metaphor of preaching as a mother conceiving and giving birth to faith, "Birthing the Sermon" addresses the historical and contemporary challenges faced by women preachers and aims to answer questions about their role in preaching. The twelve women contributors share their perspectives on the process of conceiving, nourishing, and delivering a sermon, reflecting diverse homiletical styles, theological traditions, and racial-ethnic communities. The book emphasizes the unique experiences of women, drawing parallels between their bodily rhythms and the creative process of preaching. It also seeks to encourage young preachers and explore the origins and sustenance of preaching.
