  • Employing an autoethnographic research methodology, this thesis will connect the relationship suffering has with the Christian life, and therefore unearth why a preacher’s ability to harness suffering well, personally and professionally, contributes to their aptitude to preach in ways that richly prepare the people of God for lives of service. Preachers who have endured life’s deeper dramas and dark nights of the soul are potentially able to better identify with the biblical narrative and then relate that narrative to communities of hurting people, especially in an epoch when escapism and denial toward hardship are becoming increasingly normative. This is not to suggest that while walking the pathway of faithfulness, the devout preacher must embark upon a reconnaissance mission to locate suffering. Rather, since suffering is both universal and specific to the Christian life, those shepherding God’s people must adequately embrace and harness suffering to present hearers with the whole counsel of God (Acts 20:27).
