The testimony homiletic of Anna Carter Florence offers a constructive approach for preaching from the Bible to religious liberals. While personal experience has become a contested concept in homiletical conversation, Florence's project draws on post structuralist insights to make effective and ethical use of the preacher's personal experience in engaging with and then speaking from Scripture. This project explores the impact of a series of testimony sermons on a congregation composed of many self-identified 'religious liberals.' This thesis concludes that, while testimony opens rich possibilities for preaching to religious liberals, it does so at no small risk to the preacher.
