Cycle C Sermons for Pentecost Day through Proper 12 Based on the Gospel Texts
Maurice A. Fetty
...we often deceive ourselves. If Plato advised "know thyself"and if his teacher, Socrates, said the "unexamined life is not worth living," many of us are afraid really to examine ourselves too closely, or to come to know who we really are.— from the chapter "Getting at the Truth"

Cycle C Sermons for Proper 13 through Proper 22 Based on Gospel Texts
Richard A. Jensen
In Filling the Hungry with Good Things, Jensen's sermons based on Luke's gospel are shaped primarily in story form and explore his investigation of the relationship between storytelling and preaching.
Cycle C Sermons for Proper 23 through Thanksgiving Based on the Gospel Texts
R. Robert Cueni
In this collection of sermons for the final weeks of the Revised Common Lectionary, Cycle C, the reader will find the common theme of "living through difficult times of maximal change."
In this volume, Cueni lets the text shape the sermon in some cases, while in others, lets the assigned gospel reading serve as a springboard for moving in a different direction.
Cycle A
Anthology
This compilation of stories for the Lent and Easter Seasons taken from StoryShare follows in that same tradition. StoryShare, a part of SermonSuite.com, is written by various authors brought together to meditate on scriptures in the Revised Common Lectionary for Cycle A and create stories that flesh out these passages, allowing readers to see these words in a new way.

Mark Ellingsen
Dr. Ellingsen presents the preacher with a resource that deeply enriches weekly sermon preparation. Not only does he offer exegetical and theological information for the lections, but sermon topics, themes, and other resources as well… I also appreciate the resources that he offers at the beginning of the workbook: the review of the books of the Bible, a theological overview, as well as reviews of the various seasons of the church. Unlike so many lectionary resources that are grounded in the scriptures, Dr. Ellingsen incorporates a strong focus on the theological emphasis of the texts and context. I will definitely encourage the students to purchase this workbook.

Anthology
Everyone loves a good story. Storytellers who excel at their craft have the ability to draw readers or listeners into the worlds they create, using characters and situations to both entertain and enlighten us. Jesus, the Master Storyteller, often spoke using parables -- short stories that conveyed a spiritual truth.

Wayne H. Keller
The most impressive thing about Wayne Keller's body of ideas for worship through the Christian Year is his boldness. He is bold in demanding that we, his colleagues in liturgical leadership, plan worship which has to do with the reality of our congregations' experience in the world, rather than just lead people through a proper agenda of acts and words which have no bearing on what we do the rest of the week. He is bold in challenging us to bring that real

Martha Jane Gray Click (with E. Dale Click)
After people complete the Information Talks For Visitors (see my book From Zero To Faith), attendees are hungry to get a handle on the Bible. These volumes on Through The Bible -- Book By Book not only educate but sustain people in the faith. Any church yearning to grow and sustain people needs to do these two things:
1) Give them information on the history and meaning of the Christian
