Show 12: How to Listen to a Sermon

Exploring the preacher-listener dynamic is of critical importance; each side represents, quite literally, half of the equation.

So how can you become a better listener of sermons?

Making use of the discipline of rhetorical criticism, I’ll give you, the listener, the tools by which to evaluate sermons critically.

By the way, this isn’t about helping you criticize your preachers! It’s about helping you, the hearer, to switch on and use your critical faculties whenever you listen to somebody preaching–regardless of the style of sermon being preached.

Preachers, is there anything on this podcast that will benefit you? This episode will help you to evaluate your own process, and your own rhetorical strategies that you might be making use of in your preaching. If you haven’t thought that way before, then you will definitely find some valuable insights in this show.
