Since the Reformation, the focal point of worship for many Christian churches has been the tale of the Word 'the proclamation of Scriptures and the preaching event. Congregations have been fed, often well and abundantly, at the single feast tale of the Word.

But what is the role of preaching in the double feast churches 'churches whose normative liturgical worship features rites at the two tales of the Word and of the Eucharist? This is a multi-voiced ecumenical preaching anthology full of insights from those who preside, preach, and celebrate the double feast.

In terms of time, as well as content and structure, proclamation and preaching at the double feast will be very different from preaching at worship that is exclusively Word-centered. Father Michael Monshau adds timely and critical new perspective to the issue by bringing together five significant voices from double feast churches whose presentations, in effect, become varied, short textbooks on how to preach.

Michal Monshau, OP, PhD, is a Dominican priest and the professor of homiletics at the Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology at the Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, California. He is active in spiritual direction, writing, religious formation, and retreat ministry.
