In an era when many people, including preachers, are wondering about the significance and place of preaching, Wycliffe College seeks to serve and equip church leaders by offering encouragement, training, and resources for preaching the good news in their contexts.
Fleming Rutledge, having spent twenty-two years in parish ministry, now has an international preaching and teaching vocation. Her most recent book, The Crucifixion: Understanding the Death of Jesus Christ (Eerdmans, 2015), has received praise from scholars as well as preachers. The Church Times said ‘The book is at once profound and preachable. A preacher will find material, and illustrations, for many sermons. Any Christian would find it uplifting, and academic theologians will see just how theology can best be put at the service of the wider Church.’ Her previous books have met with wide acclaim across denominational lines and national borders. She is also author of God Spoke to Abraham: Preaching from the Old Testament, and The Battle for Middle-earth: Tolkien's Divine Design in The Lord of the Rings, which has a fan base in Europe as well as the US.

"That's the Old Adam in him". I like that so much...I'm going to adopt that old saying that I've never heard before. Thank You for this post.

Old Adam - us - are sinners. Jesus not old Adam for he no sin but took on our sins, took on all us old Adams.Jesus lived as a human, as an old Adam but a "sinless" Adam.Sort of like saying the Original Adam before the Fall, has returned as the New Adam because of Jesus who took on Sin and Death - May be simplistic - but like God created Adam, Adam sin, the Fall - out into the world where Adams continue to sin. Jesus then is God who came to replace old sin Adam with the new Adam - is the New Adam like the pre-Fall Adam?
