This book is designed to help you frame consecutive weeks of lectionary texts into seasonal and short-term series. A diverse group of 12 preachers outline multiple thematic series plans for all 3 Revised Common Lectionary years.

Each series plan provides:

• a series overview
• chart that outlines each segment of the series
• tips and ideas
• scriptural references, and
• a brief sermon starter.

The series honours holy days and seasons, and responds to typical patterns of church attendance, helping you to retain visitors and engage with existing members.
