Speaking & Preaching

Teaching

I’m available to guest lecture in your academic course, teach a class or series of classes in your congregation, or teach on a topic for your clergy enrichment group. I offer in-person and virtual teaching options with engaging, energetic lectures, dynamic use of technology, and often with lively class discussions. Here are some of my favorite topics and series to teach, and I’m always happy to chat about other topics to better fit your needs:

  • Stand-up Preaching

  • Radical Heremeneutics for Preachers and Teachers

  • Preaching, Creativity, and the Arts

Preaching

Clergy need to take time off for vacations, professional development, illness, and to care for family. Perhaps your congregation is in transition from staff changes and needs preachers to fill the pulpit. Maybe you are on a committee tasked with finding a preacher for a special worship service at a community or denominational event.

I am available for in-person and virtual preaching for a range of worship experiences and I’m comfortable preaching in a variety of denominational contexts. I can develop a sermon on a lectionary text, to fit a current topical series, or….Reach out and let’s talk more about what you need and if I am a good fit!

Workshops

I’ve offered workshops at national denominational meetings, regional clergy retreats, academic conferences, and Sunday school classes. I am available for single workshops and workshop series and will collaborate with you to identify the unique needs of your group.

My workshops are highly interactive and attendees will leave with concrete skills they can implement right away. Some of my most popular workshops have been:

  • Making Love with Scripture

  • Curating Church

  • Preaching Justice in an Age of Globalization
