Preaching is a central task in the lives of clergy, and yet it sometimes seems as though the pressure to produce, combined with other duties of parish life, becomes a burden and contributes to the busyness that squeezes out time for spiritual practices. Steeped in the Holy seeks to reclaim the spiritual foundations for preaching, inviting clergy and students to see preparation and preaching not as an intrusion, but as an opportunity to engage with God and to develop practices that deepen a relationship with God and feed preaching.

Raewynne Whiteley was rector of St. James Episcopal Church in St. James, New York. She is the co-author of Get Up Off Your Knees: Preaching the U2 Catalog.  She is currently Warden of Wollaston Theological College in Perth (Australia).
