The purpose of this study is to introduce drama as a partner of preaching. It is an attempt to examine how to do homiletics as a faithful and creative drama in the post-modern era. With special reference to the notion of performance, I pay attention to the authority of the Scripture against an autonomous “aestheticism,” which claims the Bible as a text is free from its divine Author. The separation of the divine Author from His texts is unhelpful for the ministry of preaching. The metaphor of drama is an alternative way. Following the arguments of Karl Barth, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Kevin Vanhoozer, theology as God’s performative action, I explore how they creatively constructs the nature of theology as divine drama with the help of speech-act theory, spiritual reading of the Bible as canon, and performance interpretation. My point is that if the nature of theology is dramatic, preaching is also dramatic and dramatic preaching has a formative power to conform the listeners to the form of Jesus Christ. In the end, the ministry of preaching helps people to participate in the drama of God as a faithful and creative performer. To do so, preaching should be solidified by the divine script of the Bible and composed to respect the divine subjectivity. Then, we may call preaching the performative speech-action of God, in which God invites people to play their own roles in the ongoing drama.
