Almost any pastor will say they want their congregation to thrive. For most congregations to thrive, transformation is required. Breathing life into a congregation results not from the latest program, product or scheme, but attentive listening to God's Spirit in the preaching moment. Transformation begins as God's Word touches hearts and minds. One approach bearing great promise is Celebrative Preaching, described by Rev. Dr. Frank A. Thomas. Narrative Celebrative Preaching helps congregations live from memory to hope on their journey of transformation. NCP embraces and brings to light members' stories within the community through communal interviews recorded on a Whiteboard. Corporate recording of common stories and significant events reshapes a congregation's history. NCP encourages growth based upon remembrance of God's grace and activity for more awareness of God's presence and activity in their present.
