Abstract

As Edward C. Dargan declared, the history of the church is the history of preaching. The church is revived and grown through competent preachers. In this paper, I would like to present educational methods that can provide practical help to the theology students and pastors to improve their sermon skills. Preaching should be heard. When it becomes a sermon that succeeds in persuading, the 'change' that the sermon aims for becomes possible. To this end, it is possible to develop logical preaching contents, express appropriate, clear and realistic language, control strength, and declare words naturally. In order to educate on how to effectively write and deliver preaches, we propose an imitation learning method. It is to learn and master the technique by listening to and copying the sermons of field pastors who have reached a considerable level and making it their own. I am confident that imitation learning methods can achieve great results because preaching and proclamation are communication that is eventually delivered using language. In this paper, we examine how imitation learning is used in other arts fields in order to theorize and present a methodology of teaching through imitation. To this end, examples of Picasso, Chusa Kim Jeong-hee, and writer Ahn Do-hyun are presented. By examining and analyzing the process of acquiring functions through their imitation, we will find out whether the imitation learning method can be introduced in preaching, and if possible, we will introduce the method. To this end, Aristotle's theory and methodology of rhetoric and poetry were borrowed.
