This book is about vision. More precisely, it is about helping a congregation capture a pastor's vision and struggling through the process of seeing that vision fulfilled. H. Beecher Hicks captures that experience through the image of the Old Testament tabernacle---God's spiritual instrument for leading Moses and the Israelites through their wilderness journey and manifesting his glorious presence among them. This book arises out of Dr. Hicks's experiences in recent years of coping with the need of his church for a larger facility in the face of opposition from the community surrounding the church. The book captures and expounds the spiritual qualities required for such changing times. It both teaches and inspires. It shows us how to deal with the ups and downs of defining a vision, confronting change, and dealing with the obstacles that stand in the way, from both inside and outside the church. 'The problem with visions,' Dr. Hicks writes, 'is that they don't come with 'how to' manuals or an 800 number to call for technical support.' Yet God shows his faithfulness in many ways, sometimes after grit and grimy work, sometimes through unexplainable miracles.

Preaching While Bleeding

Is There a Prophet in the House?

By: H. Beecher Hicks

Dr. Hicks wrote Preaching While Bleeding as an experienced "bleeder"; therefore, I offer this word of caution--please be careful when reading this book because the blood of the author's passion may spill on you." --Dr. Maurice Watson, Senior Pastor, Metropolitan Baptist Church, Largo, MD "If you want to become a real preacher of the Word, this book will be of great value, and it will cost you everything." --David McAllister Wilson, President, Wesley Theological Seminary, Washington, DC. "In these masterful confessions on preaching, Dr. Hicks' words take on flesh and dwell among us, challenging all who would preach to do so with courage, constancy, superior biblical scholarship and with our lives." --Dr. Jeffrey Haggray Executive Director, American Baptist Home Mission Societies & Judson Press "This book challenges and chastises in the way that only H. Beecher Hicks can. I treasure his body of work and celebrate his contribution to the church and the Kingdom. This book is a "must read" for every called out, set apart preacher--whether you started today or decades ago." --Bishop Vashti McKenzie 10th District, African Methodist Episcopal Church, Texas African-American preaching must always be relevant to one's social condition and always available to speak truth to power. It is the only Word that can lift us from the "Underground" to "Higher Ground." Upon this ground, the whole of Preaching While Bleeding stands.
