The Introduction sets forth the problem, the lack of inspired and inspiring preaching in the churches today, and suggests the failure of imagination as a cause. Chapter One offers a general discussion of the development of thought on imagination. Chapter Two presents a study of preaching and imagination. Chapter Three describes five modes of imagining used in preaching: empathic imagining, prophetic imagining, lyrical-pictorial imagining, playful imagining, and resistant imagining. Chapter Four reviews the interviews of six preachers who preached homilies in the five modes of imagining. Chapter Five describes and evaluates a workshop offered for preachers on the modes of imagining. The Conclusion states the author's hopes that understanding preaching as an imaginative act, and using imaginative approaches such as the modes of imagining described in the thesis, might offer both preachers and listeners a truly living Word of God.
