- Abstract
- The relationship between the preacher and the listener has changed dramatically over the past fifty years. Postmodern philosophers of language have elucidated the idea that the reader or listener hold many of the keys to authority rather than the author or speaker as was previously espoused. Thus, this project seeks to explore the important role that context plays upon the way preachers go about attending to their task of communicating in the postmodern era. The project explores Fred Craddock's thesis regarding the inductive method of preaching and its continued viability. The project also examines the sociological issues impacting the preacher who would speak a word into the postmodern situation. The author utilizes the framework of David Tracy's theological revisionism to develop how the preacher might approach the world with the gospel message in an intellectually honest manner amidst a world filled with ambiguity.
