Abstract
  • The author researched the effect of transitions upon a particular congregation, and how preaching on the sacraments of baptism and the Lord's Supper help the congregation navigate those transitions. In each is an element of uncontrollable mystery: one's vulnerability at font and table, one's lack of control in transitional moments, and one's chutzpah in preaching God's Word. She concluded that, in times of transition, the preacher should focus on the goodness of God and the mysteries of God, rather than trying to force a premature resolution. The liminal nature of the sacraments is a complement to preaching in a liminal time.
