Anna Carter Florence on the incredible, unbelievable gospel

The marvelous Anna Carter Florence, Associate Professor of Preaching and Worship at Columbia Theological Seminary, reflects on the good news we preachers have to bring and its astonishing nature, by considering the very first Easter "sermon" and its reception. This is the five-minute version of a lecture she presented at the Festival of Homiletics two weeks ago. Well worth your time!

(Sensitive readers, please note: Anna pulls no punches in her interpretation of the Greek word λῆρος - but the fact that it's coarse language is exactly her point.)
