HOMILETICS 101
Homiletics 101
Donald Cantrell
It is with great pleasure that I offer you this new book. In this book I will share with you my personal insight in designing and developing useful and useable alliterated outlines, which you can preach from week to week.
I have been honing my alliteration skills for over 35 years. There are some specific guidelines that a person can follow and absolutely become better at alliterating outlines.
Throughout the years I have heard it all concerning using alliteration. I have heard from the opponents of alliteration and I have heard from the proponents of alliteration. It is my sincere belief that if using alliteration bothers you, then by all means you should avoid it. If alliteration bothers you when someone else uses it, then all I can tell you is this ''plow your own field and mind your own business...''
We will discuss some positives and negatives in this book, alliteration must never be forced, it must never be foolish, it should always fit and it should always flow. Alliteration is merely a tool; it is something that is in your toolbox that can be used to help you develop a sermon.
Most all of us have toolboxes and if we are honest we have things in that toolbox that we never use. It is not a matter of are those tools useful it is a matter of either we have never used them or don't know how to use them.
Alliteration can be useful to the pastor as he dissects the scripture and develops his outline. It can be very useful to the listener as they begin to follow along from point to point. I merely use it is a guiding point; there is nothing that says I have to mention every point in my outline or in my sermon. I love alliteration, but ultimately I want to be led by the Holy Ghost. Give it a try, you may find it to be very helpful.
