Preachers have long recognized the difficulty of creating an effective emotional bond with hearers without manipulating them. This thesis project will propose a theory of emotional bonding based on the work of selected contemporary psychologists, and will apply that theory by means of a series of preaching tools. Finally, the theory will be tested by means of a workshop developed for deaconate candidates. Chapters One and Two addressed the theory of emotion and the understanding of the emotional bonding process. Chapters Three and Four define and explain how metaphor, illustration, storytelling, self-disclosure, and humor work individually and collectively to create emotional bonding between preacher and congregation. These two chapters explore the value and relevancy of these methods to the homiletic process. In Chapter Five the elements discussed in Chapters One-Four are integrated within the context of the deacons' workshop. This chapter demonstrates how the techniques available, as well as the emotional bonding theory, can assist the preacher in creating a homily, which can appeal to the cognitive and emotional needs of the listener.
