Proclaiming the Word- A Reflection on Preaching

11/29/24 • 52 min

"St. Paul preached and people rioted. I preach and they give me tea."
-N.T. Wright
We've all heard good homilies and we've heard bad homilies. Have you ever wondered what a priest is thinking while he's preaching?
This week's episode of Wadi Cherith is a little different in tone. Instead of diving into a theological or cultural topic, we will be discussing our experience of preaching the Word of God. Join us as we use Aristotle's classic modes of persuasion (Ethos, Pathos, Logos) to discuss this integral part of our worship.

The Psalms are more than mere words; they are a transformative force in our lives. From personal anguish to shared hope, these texts channel our raw emotions into prayer, offering a space for reflection and empathy. Enrich your understanding of how the Psalms, memorized and recited by Jesus, provide a bridge to a wider human experience and connect us to a rich spiritual tradition. We invite you to explore their poetic power and find comfort, unity, and a profound way to communicate with God, anchoring your faith in both chaos and peace.
