The thesis of this project seeks to discover whether a biblical word of resurrection hope through celebrative narrative preaching and dialogical teaching can transform a sense of hopelessness to a condition of hope. Believing that hope is rooted in an experiential encounter with God, this thesis first examines inaugural eschatology with its multi-dimensional view of the resurrection, i.e. the past event, the future promise, and the present reality, and contrasts it with dispensational eschatology. As a means to foster experiential encounters with God, this project used the celebrative narrative preaching design of Henry Mitchell and Frank Thomas. The design was contextualized for a primarily Anglo Baptist congregation in southern Oregon. In support of the preaching strategy, this thesis employed several inductive teaching models for the purpose of fostering an experiential encounter, including dynamic translation, progressional dialogue, and lectio divina.
