Talk:Sermon

message: I can appreciate people wanting to make a Sermon (Christianity) article.  Still, I'm looking for information on the highly structured sermon rhetoric that arose in the middle ages.  Sermons of that time were something along the lines of (quote, expansion, exemplar, discussion, moral) or some such.
Perhaps make a page specific for Christian Sermons and have a page for all other sermon information?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Charles Merriam (talk • contribs) 21:38, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Tabligh redirects to sermon 

message: I removed the sentence: Elements of full-orbed preaching include exposition, exhortation and practical application. from lead as full-orbed preaching is not covered in the article. See Wikipedia:Lead section for what belongs in the lead section. If the parts of a particular type of sermon need to be discussed, that should be in the article about that type of sermon. See the section /* Types */ for links to articles about particular types of sermons. If full-orbed does not fall into one of those, please consider writing an article about what a full-orbed sermon is.  If so, please provide adequate citation to works that discuss full-orbed sermons. --Bejnar (talk) 20:27, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Full-orbed

message: This article currently has a Christianity template running along the right side of the article.  While sermons play a role in the Christian liturgy, they are not limited to Christianity.  It seems to me that the template is too broadly applied to this article, and that it should be removed.  As mentioned above, if there is enough material for a Sermon (Christian) article then the template could be used there. --Bejnar (talk) 23:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: There has been a singular lack of response to my comment.  I am specifically proposing removing the Christianity template from the article. The links there are not particularly relevant to this article, and those few that are can be safely placed in the /*See also*/ section. --Bejnar (talk) 10:17, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

text: Oops?  I just added the very beginning of a section on the sermon in Judaism, based on the article title, "Sermon" -- and only then saw this Christianity template.  If this article remains "Christian-only," the Judaism section should be removed. However, I think, like others who have made comments, that it could be a much better article if it were not restricted to Christianity alone. NearTheZoo (talk) 17:18, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: I added a hatnote at the top to try and fix it, I've never really used a hat note so if there is a better one to use or I missused it correction would be great. -Shimonnyman (talk) 04:48, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Preach shouldn't redirect here.... 

message: This article is about sermons, not just Christian sermons. Recent edits by Natemup attempted to restrict the definition and usage of the word "sermon".  As can be seen from its historical usage in English, the Jewish section of this article and the many references to the sermons of Buddha (e.g. The Buddha: Sermons and Teachings) this is not a valid restriction. --Bejnar (talk) 19:35, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
