The purpose of this thesis is to give the Christian communicator a tool for exegeting the culture, called a Listener's Grid. The grid will take cultural synthesis a step further toward a practical use. What is found here will assist preachers in developing a Listener's Grid of their own. When this process is included in sermon preparation the cultural context into which the sermon will be preached comes into better focus. Communicators can then get a feel for the way in which the listeners will hear what is said. This process is meant to be a tool for use in more easily crafting life-application sermons. The process is meant to be customized for interpreting one's own cultural context. Once that is done the culture becomes a tool of communication. Culture can then be viewed as an asset in exposing the relevance of God's Word.
