“I believe in the soul.” --- Alice
Walker, Epilogue of The Third Life of Grange Copeland
"Teaching preaching centers on
identifying and cultivating the gifts that God places within
each homiletics student for communicating the Gospel.
Teaching preaching also involves removing any barriers that
block the student from this endeavor or from his or her
sense of God. Therefore, in Howard Thurman’s worldview
and in my own, the teaching of preaching is a spiritual
discipline. Likewise, the study and teaching of
homiletics, which includes analyses of preaching’s (and the
preacher’s) spirituality, theology, history, context,
preparation, methodology, form, resources, delivery, and
reception, must be identified as spiritual practices.”
