HOMILIES | TEACHINGS | STORIES | HUMOR | QUOTES
The word homily is derived from the Greek word homilia
(from homilein), which means to have communion or hold verbal
communication with a person. In this sense homilia is used in I
Corinthians 15:33. In Luke 24:14, we find the word homiloun, and in
Acts 24:26, homilei, both used in the sense of "speaking with". Origen
was the first to distinguish between logos (sermo) and homilia (tractatus).
Since Origen's time homily has meant, and still means, a
commentary, without formal
introduction, division, or conclusion, on some part of Sacred
Scripture (i.e. a sermon), the aim being to explain the literal, and
evolve the spiritual, meaning of the Sacred Text. The latter, as a
rule, is the more important; but if, as in the case of Origen, more
attention be paid to the former, the homily will be called expository
rather than moral or hortatory. It is the
oldest form of Christian preaching. Source - Wikipedia
The pulpit practice at All Saints' is focused on the
oldest form of Christian preaching - a well prepared homily. From time
to time, one of our preachers will deliver a sermon. Our guest
speakers give sermons and they are posted on our website at
http://allsaintsweb.org/allsaints/guestspeakers.html.
