As a theologian of the church, a preacher should theologically be aware of what happens in her/his preaching, that is, theology of preaching. Whether the preacher has her/his own theological reflection of her/his preaching is quite significant because how she/he theologically defines her/his preaching provides her/him a theological framework or a theological viewpoint which determines entire preaching process from exegesis to sermon deliverance, not least a homiletical method. In that sense, the main purpose of this paper is to investigate how one’s theology of preaching facilitates homiletical methods. For that end, Fred B. Craddock and Paul Scott Wilson would be the main dialogue partners to deal with how their theologies of preaching are related to their homiletical methods: Inductive preaching and four page sermon. This research would be arguing that both Craddock and Wilson are much interested in preaching as an event, but their theology of preaching and homiletical methods are quite different from each other. This difference is originated by some theories which influence their formation of theology of preaching. Whereas Craddock much relies on the New Hermeneutic which underscores performative dimension of language, Wilson is motivated by theology of Karl Barth who centers God in preaching. As a result, although Craddock and Wilson both consider preaching as an event, in Craddock’s view an event is explained in human terms while Wilson’s view sees an event from God’s terms. Finally, this paper suggests that both scholars’ works have their own merits. Their methods have been developed from their own homiletical theologies and struggles. We, therefore, cannot say which one is right or wrong. Rather, we should choose one of them or sometimes use both in complementary way according to our preaching situations since for preaching we neither lose God as the initiator of our preaching nor forget the hearers as the recipients and active participants of our preaching. Thus, a preacher should first of all exegete her/his own congregation and, then, choose a proper method. Also, she/he has to have her/his own explanation of preaching in theological terms.
