Teaching preaching where cultures cross : historical, theological, cultural and pastoral reflections on the pedagogy of homiletics, with some particular references to the Catholic Church in Anglophone Africa.Chatteris, Christopher. January 2001 (has links)
Christian preaching is much like the liturgy of the Church in that we have been
practising its arts it for some two thousand years and yet the impression is often given that we
only began yesterday. Like the conversion to which preaching is a vital call, preaching needs to
be re-learned in every generation. Furthermore, as the Church's missionary outreach stretches
to the ends of the earth, preaching is done in an ever increasing number of tongues and cultures
and must adapt to these new contexts.
This is not a new situation: it was ever thus. From the moment the Word was spoken in
its ultimate form in flesh in a particular time and place, it has enfleshed itself in the tongues,
accents, mentalities and customs of people in all times and places. This central theological fact
is underlined, highlighted and celebrated in the Pentecost event, in which it was impossible for
the Word of God to be confined to a single mode of expression, but rather it had to overflow
prodigally into every language and culture represented at that crucial happening.
In a sense the history of preaching is the history of the Church and therefore can be
used as a measure with which to judge the faithfulness of the Church to Christ in any particular
period of history. Revivals in the life of the Church are led by and associated with revivals in
preaching. Decline is associated with poverty in the pulpit. Hence we can learn the central
lessons of our history by returning to the Church's history under this particular aspect of the
state of its preaching.
Today there appears to be a modern revival of preaching taking place in some of the
countries of the developed world, most notably in the United States which must have the
greatest concentration of educated and theologically educated laypeople in the universal
Church. Catholic schools and universities have been the primary instrument of evangelisation
in this part of the Church and now their alumni appear to be demanding of their pastors a
preaching commensurate with their professional and theological education. This phenomenon
would lead one to have great hopes for the Church in a time which many would judge to be one
characterised by severe and multiple crises. Might it happen that, if the Church continues to
encourage such a revival, this era will be judged by history as having been a time of significant
growth in piety, practice and a deepened knowledge of God powerfully contributed to by an
effective breaking of the Word?
In the developing world, and especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, history will certainly
look back to this time as one of phenomenal numerical growth. It would be tragic if its
backward regard also detected a failure to participate, in its own appropriately inculturated
way, in such a revival of preaching. For what could be more important in a young and growing ecclesial community than that its preaching should mirror and promote its dynamism,
enthusiasm, power and growth? Such an aim raises many considerations in many areas ranging
from pedagogy and spiritual formation to the more prosaic ones of the availability of human
and material resources. These and a number of related issues are broached in the following
pages. Taking the traditional and rather Catholic phenomenological approach to the subject is
divided into two parts - Preaching in General and Preaching in Africa - and an attempt is made
to follow the see, judge and act process as we progressively narrow down the focus, finally
coming to the very practical business of the teaching of homiletics, with all its imperfections
and challenges, in 'English-speaking' Africa.
In the final analysis, however, the standard of preaching will be determined by the
attitude to it of pastors and their congregations, especially the leaders. It will rise or fall
according to how seriously the Church, and not just the leadership, takes it. This work is one
attempt to encourage the Church to rise to the challenge of making our preaching a high if not
the highest pastoral priority in the universal and the African Church. / Thesis (M.A.)-University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2001.

'n Prakties-teologiese ondersoek na gesinsdienste (Afrikaans)Crous, Petrus Arnoldus 30 March 2007 (has links)
There are a variety of sermons which families can attend in different kinds of congregations. The aim of this study is to have a look at family sermons. The target group is families with children in junior catechesis. Although the target group is flexible, one can say that it will be families with children from pre-school to about grade 6. The theological starting point is twofold: the covenant and God’s love. The one without the other is empty. The covenant can be summarized as follow: “I will be your God and you must be My people.” God’s love shines through in the life and work of Jesus Christ. Three congregations were looked at to see how they handle family sermons. The congregations are: Skuilkrans in Pretoria, Pionierspark in Windhoek (Namibia) and Pietersburg-Noord (Polokwane North). Each congregation conveyed their history of family sermons. Questions about the room, time, other sermons of the congregations, preparation, liturgy, attendance, preachers, atmosphere, music and preaching were asked. In Pietersburg-Noord there is a small group of congregation members who help with the preparation of the family sermons. A description of their functioning were given. The conclusion is that family sermons won’t work in all congregations. Each congregation must find their own identity. When starting family sermons in a congregation, one must remember that Rome wasn’t build in one day and that the leaders of the congregation must be kept informed. / Dissertation (MA(Teologie))--University of Pretoria, 2007. / Practical Theology / unrestricted
