This dissertation argues that patience is a homiletical virtue, the possession of which deepens one's engagement in the practice of preaching. Through this argument, I propose a new way of considering the role of patience in preaching and the difference it makes for one's ability to engage in the practice well.Chapter one considers how the primary frame of reference within which Homiletics has generally understood character the preacher's character - the rhetorical frame -has produced a lacuna with respect to the role of character and virtues. This frame focuses on the preacher's character in the pulpit, and dictates a virtue's importance according to its helpfulness in this piece of the practice.Chapter two identifies a theological frame of reference as an alternative frame that provides a wholistic vision of character and virtue's role within the practice of preaching. I explore the theological frame of reference generally, then turn to one example of this frame to consider how it leads to a larger role for the preacher's character within homiletical instruction.Chapter three considers virtue itself. Engaging Aquinas's theory of virtue, I define virtue as a good habit that makes its possessor an excellent functioner in some realm of human activity. I then turn to Alasdair MacIntyre's theory of practice to show how practices necessitate one's possession of specific virtues. I conclude the chapter by arguing that preaching is a practice that requires its own "homiletical virtues."Chapter four draws on the Christian tradition, but most directly from Aquinas, to define patience as that virtue which regards our passionate responses to sorrow that enables right and good endurance. I then address three objections to the virtue of patience: the moral, practical, and theological objections.Chapter five follows one preacher's journey through the practice of preaching, identifying locations where patience is necessary to practice well. By demonstrating where one cannot engage deeply in the practice without the virtue of patience, this chapter establishes patience as a homiletical virtue.The conclusion considers how this project might relate to other sub-disciplines of Practical Theology and suggests trajectories for future research.
