Abstract
  • The art of preaching by retelling or dramatizing biblical stories demands poetic license, which to many listeners/viewers and homileticians is incompatible with a sermon's burden of conveying 'the Truth.' In general, sermons necessitate interpretation, explanation, and application. In order to accomplish these things without adding didactic components to sermons which are presented as stories or dramas, the preacher must expand the text's events an characterization. This process, described in the thesis, is an exercise in poetic license. Exercising poetic license with biblical texts, however, raises a host of homiletical and hermeneutical issues, many of which are addressed in the thesis.
