/I sat down with Anna Carter Florence to talk about her passion for preaching. We discuss lessons she's learnt from teaching preaching for two decades, overlap between acting and preaching, how to make Scripture more dynamic and accessible, and her book Rehearsing Scripture: Discovering God's Word in Community.
Anna Carter Florence will be a keynote speaker at the upcoming PreachFest 2021 hosted by Uniting Mission and Education, June 1st to 3rd, featuring a raft of amazing preachers and teachers.

Dr. Anna Carter Florence is Peter Marshall Professor of Preaching at Columbia Theological Seminary. She is interested in preaching and public proclamation, and preparing leaders who can speak and listen in multiple contexts for ministry. Her research focuses on testimony, pedagogies of preaching, the creative process by which communities engage and embody scripture, and how other fields—particularly poetry and theater—offer models for prophetic speech.
