MORE THAN WORDS: PREACHING THROUGH ART (BSHM-3000)

(10/24/2023-12/15/2023)

Course Memo

This course introduces students to preaching through various artistic mediums. Various artistic forms will be engaged, such as movement, drama, poetry, music, song, paintings, etc. This course serves as an advanced preaching laboratory, going beyond the basic structure, goals, and techniques of preaching to support each student in using creative and artistic media to build their own personal homiletic that utilizes personal experience and identity, artistic media, cultural and family traditions, and experimental forms to create space for preaching to expand and flourish in new ways that are authentic to each student’s particular vocation. Together, we will expand the genre of text to include other artistic mediums as "texts" that attempt to decenter the written word where the rules of interpretation are not predetermined for the audience. This is an upper-level course and requires Introduction to Hebrew and Christian Scriptures as prerequisites. [Auditors With Faculty Permission]
