As a result, the basic agenda of this dissertation will be the following: to explore the sacramentality of preaching, construed in terms of an encounter with Jesus Christ, from the angle of its creativity through the coordinated contributions of the Holy Spirit and human imagination. cache/3n203x83412.txt txt/3n203x83412.txt
