Thesis

This thesis examines the issues involved in preaching sermons that are both theocentric (God-centered) and relevant. This model is based on theological convictions on the relevance of theology, the nature of God and Scripture, and on human participation in the divine theo-drama.

This thesis outlines the hermeneutical issues related to theocentric interpretation. It also presents a model for sermon development, based on Haddon Robinson’s book Biblical Preaching, which focuses on issues related to God-centered, relevant preaching.

This thesis forms the basis of a seminar on theocentric preaching.
