Willimon&#039;s Preaching<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 24px;\"><strong>WONG Shun Shing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">This article examines William H. Willimon&#039;s homiletical theology, which posits that narrative\u2014especially life stories\u2014serves not as mere illustration but as the primary argumentative structure in Christian preaching.<\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Amid contemporary challenges of entertainment-oriented, consumerist, and attractional preaching that often reduce the gospel to therapeutic advice, moral guidelines, or marketable spiritual products, Willimon advocates a theocentric model. Preaching, in his view, constitutes a divine theological event wherein God speaks disruptively through the peculiar and alien qualities of biblical and ecclesiastical narratives.<\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Drawing on narrative theology influenced by Karl Barth, Willimon maintains that Christian faith is fundamentally narrative, witnessing to God&#039;s historical acts culminating in Christ&#039;s incarnation, death, and resurrection. Preaching thus performs and re-presents God&#039;s story in the present, inviting hearers into its drama. Stories function generatively and performatively: they enact theological truth and create a new reality rather than passively reflecting or decorating pre-existing propositions.<\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">This study contrasts Willimon&#039;s approach with conventional narrative practices, which typically familiarize the gospel, emphasize individual inspiration, address felt needs, instrumentally prove abstract truths, or depend on the preacher&#039;s charisma. Willimon instead employs estrangement to underscore the gospel&#039;s scandalous strangeness, prioritizes communal formation, embodies truth narratively, and relies on the Holy Spirit rather than human technique.<\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Central to his method are life stories\u2014personal, congregational, and historical testimonies\u2014that form the core of argumentation. These function as existential witnesses, embedding individual experiences within God&#039;s redemptive narrative, countering modern individualism, and cultivating the church&#039;s identity as a peculiar people shaped by divine initiative.<\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Applying this framework to the Chinese church context, the article critiques prevalent tendencies toward prosperity theology, pragmatic applications, and commodified personal testimonies that domesticate the gospel&#039;s cruciform oddity. It advocates defamiliarizing, Spirit-reliant, community-focused storytelling that honors failure, unresolved tension, and waiting as loci of grace.<\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">In conclusion, Willimon reclaims preaching as a relational divine\u2013human encounter rather than an attractive performance. By treating story as an argument, preachers participate in God&#039;s reality-creating speech, entrusting their vulnerable words to the Holy Spirit for disciple formation and immersion in the ongoing drama of salvation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201c&quot;Story Is Argument&quot;: The Use of Life Stories in William H.
