Is It a Sermon? - Donyelle C McCray - Bog

Is It a Sermon? is an informative and daring call to blur the boundaries of the sermon genre, exploring the "shoreline" of homiletics, or the place where preaching laps up against other modes of discourse. Focusing on African American preachers who play at the boundaries of the sermon genre, McCray explores how preaching merges with song, quilting, dance, prayer, storytelling, and activism. Genre play proves central to integrating ancestral wisdom in preaching.
