Abstract

In this work the author gives an overview of composing
sermons following the homiletics of David Buttrick. The work
is divided in three parts. The first part presents the context in
which David Buttrick works. His homiletics is a part of a complex
trend that arises among Protestants in late 1960s. Specificity
of his homiletics is the reliance on phenomenological method
from which he takes the ideas when composing the sermon. The
second part presents the process by which Buttrick prepares
sermons. Namely, his sermon consists of moves that are
mutually connected to make a whole. In this part the content
of each move is extensively described as well as the way that
ensures that the listeners remember the move. The third part
presents a brief content of sermon about the prodigal son and
its descriptive analysis.
