P751 Contemporary Homiletical Theory

Students engage diverse modern and postmodern theories of preaching to explore challenges facing contemporary preachers, clarify their convictions about preaching. Figures we engage include Buttrick, Campbell, Carter-Florence, Craddock, Gonzalez & Gonzalez, Kim, LaRue, Long, Lowry, Mitchell, and Rose. Assignments will include classroom presentation on a figure, a paper in which the student will explore their own homiletic in light of their context and the readings and a sermon.
