Abstract
Throughout the following pages three major themes will be interwoven with the aspects of the preaching ministry mentioned above. The themes are pastoral in nature and have been formulated over many years in the parish ministry.

In a similar way, this paper will study the proclamation of the Word in relation to (1) the hearers, (2) the content of the message, and (3) the approach or manner of communication. These three areas of study, which are also the three goals of this paper, can be summarized in the following manner:
