PR5370 Preaching to Shape a Practicing Church<br />
This preaching course focuses on crafting sermons that seek, both in their theological<br />
claims and in their rhetorical strategies, to equip a congregation to “jump the<br />
gap” between Lord’s Day worship and the Monday-to-Saturday world, imaginatively<br />
and through faith-grounded action. Readings include practical ecclesiology,<br />
theological and rhetorical studies of imagination, public issues preaching theory,<br />
and practice theory. Written work will include bi-weekly response papers, exegesis<br />
of preaching contexts and biblical texts, and four sermons (accompanied by exegesis),<br />
each designed for a specific congregation context. At least one sermon (and<br />
possibly two) will be preached in class, depending on enrollment.<br />
