Scolding the Snakes

Scolding the Snakes and 58 other Kids Sermons from the Gospel of Luke
Ruth Gilmore has been giving children's sermons to an enthusiastic following since she was eight years old. After many requests from pastors and other fans, she began to collect her sermons organized according to the Revised Common Lectionary. This book (for year C) is the first in that collection—and the first in a series that follows years A, B, and C in the RCL's cycle. Each book offers a full lectionary year's worth of sermons, 59 sermons in all. Read the review by Gary Benedict.

An inspiring foreword by the award-winning writer and storyteller Walter Wangerin Jr. poetically presents the book. The author's introduction provides helpful suggestions for preparing and delivering sermons. A table of contents and index are included to help find the right sermon for a particular Sunday or theme, making this book useful for churches not following the RCL cycle of Bible readings. An accompanying CD-ROM lets readers personalize each sermon for their own usage. The CD contains the entire text of the book in web (HTML), word processor (RTF) and Adobe Acrobat PDF formats, allowing users to easily search the contents and copy and paste selections to create their own customized sermons.
