This project examines African American expectations about preaching in the Eastern Virginia Association of the Southern Conference of the United Church of Christ, reviewing collected data from two questionnaires and many clergy interviews. The project tests an assumption that expectations of preaching are changing, primarily because of increasing educational attainments of laypersons in African American churches. Results of these investigations, presented in 24 tables, show that the majority of college students and laypersons agree on many questions concerning the importance of preaching. Most important, these educated persons feel that seminary preparation is not as important for ministers as others might assume.
