AbstractDespite numerous developments within homiletics over the last several decades, those who preach the Old Testament frequently find themselves caught in a 19th century historical— christological binary. This article analyzes five “new” approaches to preaching the Old Testament that help free the preacher from such a binary: Christological-Allusion, Inverted Typology, Scriptural Mash-up, Intertextual-Dialogue, and Transcontextual Spiral. While each approach offers a distinct option for Old Testament preaching, they share a common interest in critiquing a hermeneutic of power, in re-envisioning christology, and in portraying the “Old” Testament as a word that speaks today.
