Preaching Comprehensively

But Rosenstock writes in 'Planetary Service' that we should preach to form groups to replace those being destroyed by new technology.

Multi-perspectivalism.  IF you want to prime, per Gladwell's 'Blink' and Solomon and the two harlots and one baby. Comprehensivity. But some just want to enjoy the environment of church.  

Lectionaries are OK. Battle briefings are good.

A couple of thoughts.  One could teach Jeremiah 'prophecy by prophecy' for about a year, since Bullinger lists 49 of 'em in his Companion Bible.  Add something for intro and summary and Lamentations, and that's a 52-week/year, and I think it is VERY important, since JBJ says we are in Jeremiah time.

Or, use the 49-book Bible in 'Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament' and teach people the Bible in a year by preaching a book a week, book by book.

Or, Psalm by Psalm (Psalms is the Bible in miniature: Luther). 146 Psalms (JBJ) is one way.  Add in time for summaries of the books (5, per Gen., Ex., Lev., Num. Deut) and summaries of the whole, and you get 182, or 26 weeks.  Do it twice.
