Preach it brother!
Good
article on postmodern preaching over at
theooze. The role of the preacher and the process of preaching has been a recent topic over at the
postmodern theology discussion group. I really don't like the term preaching as it is commonly practiced - a didactic proclamation directed toward the converted. The biblical model is that preaching is for those who are unconverted. Teaching is for the followers. Teaching has much more of an open-ended, common discovery kind of feel to it. It's more experiential.
Hey wow, right after I wrote that stuff you just read, I gave a quick scan to
this article over at
next-wave. It says what I just stabbed at, only more thoroughly. It's written by a San Diego guy . . . I gotta meet him!
