Abstract

The project leader worked to discover the value and best use of self-disclosure in a postmodern context by addressing four challenging areas to the preacher: truth, authority, relevance, and community. He examined his own perceptions toward other preachers' self-disclosure by listening and evaluating twenty-five messages. He used self-disclosing stories and had a reflection group evaluate both self-disclosing and non-self-disclosing messages. The results were compared to a larger sample which evaluated one self-disclosing and one non-self-disclosing message. The comparisons yielded significant implications for communicating with self-disclosure.
