本研究論文的目的是探討一個以十架神學應用在預苦期經題講道的方案，為有助當前講道者所面對的諸多挑戰（第一章）。研究範圍包括：教會節期、經題發展與十架神學等三個範疇與預苦期經題講道的關聯性（第二至五章）；進而探討出一個經題講道模式（第六章）。這個模式的內涵是：從經題的對應關係中，闡述預苦期意義與逾越節的奧秘，從中發掘人的困境與上帝的福音，並以十架神學的方法為應用。
本研究有三個重要發現；第一，教會節期與經題體系存在密切的內聯性，具有不可分離的重要意義，它們共同詮釋耶穌逾越節的體現。第二，這個經題講道模式
具有獨特的優越性。因為它提供講道者靈活的雙向思考和處境化應用的空間。同時，適用於教會年中每一個節期的經題講道。第三，十架神學是每一個教會節期之經題講道的神髓。因為它以十字架的方法來審視經題的對應關係，闡述逾越節信仰，證實上帝的福音。因此，本研究已經為講道者所面對的諸多挑戰，提出了具有實踐價值的可行性方案。
The purpose of this research is to develop a plan for applying the theology of the cross
to offer help with the many challenges faced by current preachers (chapter 1). The scope of the research includes: the liturgical cycle of the church year, the lectionary, the theology of the cross, and the relevance of lectionary preaching in Lent (chapters 2 to 5). As a result, a new model of preaching the Scriptures is suggested (chapter 6). This model is built on the inner relationship of the lectionary readings as they expound the meaning of Lent and the
mystery of the Passover. From this exposition, man’s plight and God’s Gospel are discovered, with the theology of the cross offering help.
There are three important findings from this research. First, the liturgical cycle of the church year and the lectionary are closely interconnected and have inseparable significance.
They jointly interpret the embodiment of Jesus' paschal shape. Second, this new mode of preaching on the lectionary has two unique advantages. It provides preachers with interactive two-way thinking and contextualized actualization, and it is applicable to the preaching of Scriptures in every season of the church year. Finally, the theology of cross is the essence of the preaching for the topics of every church year season. This is because it examines the relationship between the Scriptures and the method of the cross, it expounds
the Passover faith, and it confirms the gospel of God. This study, therefore, offers practical,usable solutions for the many challenges faced by preachers.
