Throwback Thursday: The Herald
Note: This was originally published on January 29, 2018. ~ Ed.
Those who read and preach during the Divine Service ought to be careful to avoid dramatization, to say nothing of stand-up comedy.
The Greek term for preaching is kerysso, a cognate of kerygma, another term used in the New Testament for the proclamation of the Gospel. Another cognate is keryx, which means "herald."
