Abstract
  • Do people hear many different relevant messages from the same text? The author used ethnographic research methods. This included surveys of clergy and taped responses of laity. There were eight lay persons and seven clergy that took part in this study. The author used to text in the gospel of Mark. We examined Mark 1:9-20 and Mark 16: 1-8.I listened to the responses of laity and the clergy. I then analysed each response. After the author reflected on the laity responses. I then preached both texts in two small contexts, the church and the mission in which I work.The author's conclusion is that people hear many different messages from the same text. Mark Allan Powell writes in his book, What shall they Hear? that 'in the moment of hearing a the text preached and read the listener has the power to choose what to do with our words.' Again, the author's research supports the small study that people take away different meanings based on race, economic status, religious affiliation and gender.
