In many churches, preaching remains the "main course" of worship. Much thought has been given to it, especially in English-speaking and German-speaking countries.
In this book, Alfred Kuen gives us the fruit of half a century of experience in preaching and his readings of several dozen homiletics treatises in French, German and English.
While seeking to benefit from what our predecessors have taught us, the author also examines what new forms of communication can teach us.
MAIN TOPICS COVERED:
- The message and the messenger
- Communication elements
- Distant and immediate preparation of a sermon
- Choice of text, exegesis and meditation
- Different types of messages and plans
- Structure your message, illustrate it, write it and preach it
- Classify your messages
A work intended as much for the recycling of “professionals” as for the training of those who have to occasionally ensure the ministry of the word.
