The Center for Sermon Studies was founded in 2014 as a service to Marshall faculty and students, members of faith communities in the tri-state area, and researchers around the world. It is multidisciplinary and interfaith, bringing scholars and practitioners together to discuss sermon texts and the art of preaching from a variety of academic and religious perspectives. In 2024, the Center began a partnership with the International Sermon Studies Association, housed at Regent College in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
Links to projects sponsored by the Center can be found at the top of this page. Those interested in discussing matters related to preaching are invited to follow the Center’s Facebook page. For more information about the Center’s work, please contact the Director.
