“The Times, They Are A-Changing” – Bob DylanIn Preaching at the Crossroads: How the World – And Our Preaching – Is Changing, David Lose effectively examines how our current world is undergoing radical change, due to a confluence of Postmodernism, Secularism, and Pluralism. He goes on to suggest a way forward for preaching: how we might move from a performative homiletic (where the preacher does most of the homiletical work for the congregation) to a participatory homiletic (where the preacher collaborates with the congregation in the formation, delivery, and response to the sermon). This workshop explores ways to make this shift in the life of a local congregation.The practices and methods we will explore in this workshop intend to engage the congregation in the sermonic process and enhance the preaching ability of the preacher, so as to enrich the whole church in the preaching life of the church. This will result in a people who are not only more biblically literate – they know the content of the Bible, but also biblically fluent – they know how to use the Bible in faithful ways. Since the purpose of preaching is not information but transformation, this means that our congregations will be better equipped to translate biblical doctrine into lived experience.If at all possible, it would be great to invite one or two laypersons from your church to join you in this interactive, collaborative workshop.
