Summary/Abstract: The first part of the study presented activities of the German Homiletics Association (AGH), a publishing series Okumenische Studien zur Predigt, and homiletic theology handbooks. The second part, based on several dozens monographs published between 2000-2018, presents directions of research in German-speaking homiletics. A traditional, internal classification of homiletics into fundamental, material, formal and detailed one may seem purely academic, but remains justifiable. It allows us to prove that homiletics truly is a theological science in all its sections. Analysis of specific studies is done in a way that refers to this traditional division.
