Abstract

Looking at the sweeping changes in American culture due to the influence of postmodern thought, this Thesis-Project seeks to help Christian preachers communicate biblical truth in a relevant manner. Rather than fearing these changes, the author welcomes the opportunities preachers have in this age of heightened spiritual sensitivity. The goal of this Project is to help preachers mobilize believers to reach unchurched people. In postmodern America, increasing numbers of people have little to no church background. Believers with a church background often struggle to relate to unchurched friends. The Project contends that the preacher's sermon content and style of delivery can help equip believers to reach unchurched, unsaved friends for Christ. The primary question addressed is: What kind of preaching most effectively mobilizes a church community to reach an unchurched postmodern community for Christ?
