In this thesis I explore how a sermon's preparation and preaching can facilitate what I call 'holy utterance' in the proclamation of healing narratives. This is a speech act spoken by Jesus in order to effect healing in the story. My beginning thesis was that when the preacher's exegetical, interpretive and homiletic methods are informed by a combination of speech act theory, principles of oral storytelling and issues of social stress, the congregation can experience a kind of healing at identifiable moments in the sermon. One significant finding for the moment of holy utterance in the sermon is that repeating the holy utterance at different moments of the direct address to the congregation, etc. creates proper space to allow for the congregation to experience holy utterance. My more significant discovery is that holy utterance as proclamation that heals is a paradigm for all preaching. This is important to the field of homiletics for three reasons. First, this thesis presents an exploration of preaching that is more consistent with our post-modern world. Second, it seeks to bring together some of recent homiletical thought into a homiletical art form. Third, the people for whom we preach week in and week out need healing of the stress they experience in their everyday lives.
