This interpretive inquiry explores the lived experience of being a preacher in the six weeks of Easter. A subtext for the study is wrestling with the question, 'What does it mean to be faithful as a Christian preacher in this time and culture?' A critical review of the purposes of preaching is offered and a series of commonly held expectations or intentions of Christian preaching are clarified. Using a hermeneutic phenomenological approach, the preacher/researcher engages seven mainline Protestant preachers in an intensive six-week study of their lived experience of being a preacher in an Easter season. This study helps broaden our understanding of what it means to be a preacher in an Easter season, the praxis of preaching and dynamics at work in being a preacher. In addition, it offers implications for preachers, preaching and being faithful in this post-modern cultural context.
