Course Description
This course is designed to help students find their
individual preaching voice as they develop the abilities and skills necessary
for the construction and delivery of effective sermons. The course is aimed at
addressing three important elements of effective preaching and includes topics
and materials related to (1) preparation of the preacher, (2) development and
creation of the sermon manuscript, with particular attention given to the
identification of the good news of the text and a discipleship message that is
a call to action for the hearers, and (3) effective delivery of the sermon. The
content of class sessions may include readings, lectures, video presentations,
discussions, individual, group and class exercises, as well as performance
training and preaching practice. Students will be required to preach three
sermons in the course of the term during and outside of class and to participate
in the evaluation of their sermons and those of their classmates.
