Prophetic/Apocalyptic Preaching

Register for Zoom Workshop Here

The pervasive nature of sin and human brokenness is personal, communal, institutional, and systemic. Preaching the word of God transforms and speaks truth to power. Or at least, we pray and hope so. We will explore how our sermons can undo systems of power and privilege, and how we as preachers can be co-conspirators with those whom Howard Thurman calls “the disinherited.”
