Kerygma and Didache: The Articulation and Structure of the Earliest Christian Message (1980) is a book by James I.H. McDonald.

Abstract

"Dr McDonald studies the fundamental structures and procedures of Christian communication, identified as propheteia (the prophetic), and paraclesis and homilia (the homiletic), paraenesis and catechesis (the catechetic), and paradosis (the transmission of tradition). He explores what lies behind each of them as well as the way they are used by Jesus and the early Church. Both kerygmatic and didactic features are found in all of these structures"--Publisher's description.
