Remembering Why We Preach

Preaching from a place of passionate love for God will lead people to Christ and help them develop their spiritual life. And it should be the homily's primary goal.

A retreat called Remembering Why We Preach can reawaken your spirituality and creative drive. You will be guided through an eight-part process of spiritual renewal and skill development that will nourish and enrich you and your preaching for years to come by Fr. Michael Connors, CSC, director of the John S. Marten Program in Homiletics and Liturgics at the University of Notre Dame, and Karla Bellinger, executive director of the Institute for Homiletics at the University of Dallas.

You will examine the spiritual, pastoral, and community dimensions of preaching, which are at the core of the Church's task of producing disciples, whether you have just been ordained or have been preaching for years.
