Christian proclamation, says Dietrich Bonhoeffer, is the living
Christ walking among the people. Preachers know that Jesus is the
living Word, and that the Spirit of Jesus animates the preaching
event. Preaching is an epiclesis, an invocation of the Holy Spirit
over God's holy people. As such, it must touch their imagination.
Pastro proposes that preaching is the living ecclesial presence of
Jesus Christ, Sacramental Word of the God of the poor. The Word
speaks from the imagination of the poor-the economic poor, but also
the "new poor" of the twenty-first century: entire indigenous
cultures, women, those marginalized because of their sexuality,
undocumented immigrants in dominant cultures, and many others. All
Christian preachers in every context are called to solidarity with
the poor.
