The homiletical concern of this study is to test the postmodern homileticians' theories concerning authority for their relevance to the African American preaching experience. This study describes the response of an African American Baptist congregation when given an opportunity to compare and contrast the preaching of the new and postmodern homiletic which is inductive, narrative, and non-authoritarian, to the preaching tradition of the African American church, which is largely deductive and authoritarian. The most important conclusion reached in this study is that the major determinant in sermonic satisfaction was not an issue of form. Deductive versus inductive or authoritarian versus non-authoritarian formats were less important to listeners if they felt connected to the sermon as a result of finding themselves and their life situations in the sermonic discourse.
