The Testimony Edit: Writing Ourselves Back into the Story

Anna Carter Florence
Associate Professor of Preaching, Columbia Theological Seminary

Caldwell Lecture
March 4, 2008

A preacher speaks the truth that she sees and believes –a witness at a precise moment in history. We need to be willing to hear the testimony of the preacher, and the preacher needs to be the witness to the story, not the center of the story. Listen to the lecture. The lecture begins five minutes into the recording following the introductory remarks and introduction of the speaker. The text of this lecture is not available.
