Preaching for the Upbuilding of the Church in Transition

How could preaching serve to build up a church in §transition? What homiletic theory can we postulate §for building up the church during this transition? §What would the hermeneutic-communicative §characteristics of a homiletic theory be for the §identity of the church as a community in transition? §This work develops a homiletic theory from a §hermeneutic-communicative perspective, which bears a §dynamic relationship to a faithful and relevant §ecclesiology. In order to this, it is identified a §faithful and relevant ecclesiology of the church in §transition. From These two understandings on the §one hand, a faithful and relevant ecclesiology, §developed from a missional perspective and on the §other hand, Riceour s model of collective narrative §identity, a homiletic theory for forming a faithful §and relevant ecclesiology is composed through §preaching as an act of translation, and act of §exchange, and an act of forgiveness. This developed §homiletic theory is applied to the contemporary §theory and praxis of preaching and the ecclesiology §of church in Korea.
