Abstract

This dissertation was designed to help preachers who struggle with public speaking anxiety (PSA) learn to cope with their condition. The researcher conducted a literature review of homileticians, public speaking experts, and Bible commentators to investigate the problem of PSA and what can be done about it. Additionally, qualitative research was conducted in which the researcher interviewed experienced preachers who have suffered the symptoms of PSA and have experienced improvement in their condition. At the end of the dissertation, the researcher makes best-practice recommendations to nervous preachers in order to help them alleviate their PSA symptoms.
