The Inner Life of the Contemplative PreacherÂ
 CLICK FOR SESSION DESCRIPTIONÂ
What if the most prophetic preaching begins in silence?
In this session, Trey Clark unveils the often-overlooked depth of Black contemplative preaching—a tradition rooted in prayer, mysticism, sacred imagination, and the healing rhythms of embodied faith. Drawing on the wisdom of ancestors and mystics like Howard Thurman, Amanda Gorman, and the Desert Mothers and Fathers, Clark invites us into a preaching that is more than words: it is a habitus of prayer, a spiritual technology of stillness, song, and soul.
