Rev. Michael B. Curry, preached at the service of Holy Eucharist.                                  

You are invited to register now for Seminary of the Southwest's annual continuing education session.

Is preaching just one more item on your to-do list, or is it part of your identity, part of  your self? We'll be looking at this topic and others, including the preacher alone and in community, the place of the preacher in the sermon, and the preacher as sermon. Join us for this practical and philosophical look at the role of the preacher in today's church.
