While the commentaries and articles on 2 Corinthians focus on the world behind the text, giving attention to the identity of Paul’s opposition and questions about the letter’s composition, few scholars have bridged the gap between the exegesis of 2 Corinthians and the sermon. The issue of what constitutes legitimate ministry, the focus of 2 Corinthians, is a pressing issue today for churches as they face an identity crisis. Paul confronts opponents who judge him by secular standards of ministry, offering an alternative that is based on the cross. Second Corinthians offers an insight into both the nature of pastoral ministry and the mission of the church. This book draws parallels between Corinth and the contemporary situation of the church. The exegetical insights demonstrate the primary focus of the passage as the basis for the preaching text. This book demonstrates a full awareness of current scholarship on 2 Corinthians and offers hermeneutical and homiletical guidance for addressing these issues today.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"James Thompson has devoted much of his career to the study of the Pauline corpus. As he has done so many times before, Thompson offers this book in the service of the church. As such he is a preacher's scholar. Each section of 2 Corinthians contains fresh theological insights followed by a section on reflections for preaching and teaching, which is then followed by sample sermons. For those who want to preach and teach from 2 Corinthians, this volume is a treasure trove of insightful suggestions."
--Dave Bland, Harding School of Theology

"A first-rate biblical scholar who holds a high view of preaching, James Thompson once again proves to be a welcome and trustworthy voice. Preaching Second Corinthians provides a homiletic vision tethered to the text, making Thompson's most recent work an essential resource for those who are serious about preaching from 2 Corinthians."
--David Fleer, Lipscomb University

"As Thompson eavesdrops on Paul's conversation with the Corinthians, he provides a rhetorical analysis of the text and reflections on teaching and preaching. Going beyond preaching advice, Thompson provides a primer for understanding Paul's pastoral practice. This volume also brings preaching to life by offering four model sermons."
--Tim Sensing, Abilene Christian University

"There is no one who has influenced the way I preach Paul more than James Thompson. His impeccable scholarship and feel for the preaching task are a perfect combination. With the very definition of authentic ministry in question, this clarion call to ministers defined by the cross of Christ is the right message at the right time."
--Randy Harris, Abilene Christian University
