This thesis explores the use of music, drama and visual arts in preaching. It emerges out of the author's desire to preach sermons that stimulate emotions and intuitions as well as the listeners' intellectual capacity. Drawing upon Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, the author presented sermons incorporating diverse artistic media as a means of engaging various intelligences. Feedback to these sermons was solicited through both written and verbal responses. The thesis posits that the use of such creative elements can be effective in addressing the whole beings of the listeners and engaging different modes of intelligence.
