“Preaching is boring,” is the expectation for most who sit in the pews Sunday after Sunday. The dominant paradigm for that preaching is “preaching the gospel” as the truth that listeners need to hear - a message delivered with certitude and directiveness. This presentation of the Good News of Jesus Christ has the marks of hegemony and violence visited on both listeners and the preacher. This paper explores an approach to preaching which eschews certitude and hegemony by providing a reflective and invitational approach; using five categories: What is God doing?; What is the aim and intention of preaching; Preaching and the preacher; Preparation and Delivery; and Evaluation.
