Preaching in the Inventive Age

We live in a world that is increasingly open source, welcoming people into the creation of almost everything. However, the vast majority of churches still practice the sermon as a monologue.

Doug Pagitt, the innovative pastor of Solomon's Porch in Minneapolis, responds to this situation by laying out his method of preaching-what he calls progressional dialogue.

Building on his book, Church in the Inventive Age, Pagitt declares that a new context calls for a new form of communication, and he shows just how he and others at Solomon's Porch have catalyzed dialogue in the place of the traditional sermon for over a decade.
