Summary/Abstract: A modern man lives and learns within the iconic culture, which makes his mentality similar to that culture. Meanwhile, the preachers are servants of the word. The narrative is a form of figurative speech, which is meant to create in the listener's mind the image of the proclaimed truth. Therefore, the narrative becomes a skilled tool, which remains a word but, on the other hand, it corresponds to the mentality of a contemporary man.
