Teacher: Amber Cook

This course provides a combination of theory and practice in the preparation and delivery of sermons. Special attention will be given to developing a theology of preaching, in addition to understanding biblical interpretation for preaching. Analysis of sample sermons will equip students to grow as preachers and learn how to analyze preaching. Students will be given the opportunity to preach and provide feedback to other students’ sermons. While this class functions as a “how to” for preaching, it also deeply explores what preaching is in order for faithful and fitting preaching to occur. This course is designed to explore the purpose, mechanics, and methodology of the art of preaching.
