Developing Transformational, Expository Sermons for the Postmodern Hearer at Harvest Bible Chapel, London, Ontario

This project sought to improve my ability to prepare and deliver expository sermons that have a Spirit-empowered transformational impact on the postmodern generation at Harvest Bible Chapel, London. Chapter 1 presents the purpose, goals, context, rationale, definitions, limitations, and research methodology of the project. Chapter 2 provides the biblical and theological mandate for expository preaching in weekend services for all churches seeking to be faithful to the mission given to them by God. Chapter 3 discusses the core elements of communication in relation to teaching and learning. Included is an examination of the current philosophies of teaching and learning and how these have influenced preaching in the church. Chapter 4 describes the ministry project including each of the eight weeks of preaching, surveys, and focus groups. Chapter 5 provides and evaluation of the purpose and goals of the project, including theological reflections, strengths and weaknesses of the project, and what I would do differently, should I do this project again.
