The Homiletic Of All Believers: A Conversational Approach To Proclamation And Preaching

By O. Wesley Allen Jr.

Book Overview

Preaching, says professor and author O. Wesley Allen Jr., should be considered as a form of conversation. The church, after all, is a community of conversation that exists in part to interpret God's purposes for the world and to participate in those purposes. The idea of the sermon as a conversation, then, is not simply a style or form of preaching but an integral expression of the nature and purpose of the church.
