- Abstract
- The project's purpose was to evaluate various categories of story sermons as to their effectiveness. The five categories were: 1) vivid retelling of a Biblical passage (usually a narrative), 2) retelling/updating of a Biblical parable, 3) 'baptizing' a secular story, 4) a sermon centered upon a single image, and 5) an original story (written or extemporaneous). Two sermons were preached in each category in worship services in Liberia, West Africa, where the author taught Bible and preaching courses. The use of the fourth category is discouraged. The others are affirmed by careful analysis. Story sermons take their place alongside expository forms, because of differences in ways of hearing/thinking and to fit various texts more appropriately.
