THE WORD IS WORTH A THOUSAND PICTURES: PREACHING IN THE ELECTRONIC AGE seeks
to integrate media ecology with historic Christianity in developing a
homiletical theory which will enable pastors to be more effective
communicators. In the process Reynolds assesses the work of theorists such
as McLuhan, Ellul, Ong, and second generation such as Postman and
Meyrowitz. He argues that a Judeo-Christian view of texts and rhetoric
explains the profundity of the insights of all of the founders just
mentioned. He seeks to make this "hidden ground" explicit and challenge
Christian thinkers to develop a theory of communication and suggests the
contours of this theoretical foundation.
