Publisher's Synopsis
The spiritual decay of nominalism threatens the church worldwide, yet little attention has been given to the role of homiletics in revitalizing a congregation's spiritual health. In this study, Dr. Johnson Raih explores the impact of preaching. He utilizes interviews and questionnaires to assess the presence of nominalism within church congregations, along with the effects of preaching on spiritual vitality. Raih suggests that expository preaching can confront nominalism within the church. He offers ten practical recommendations for countering nominalism homiletically.
