Beschreibung
The stage, text, plot and characters of Together in God’s Theatre are rooted in (South) Africa and globally connected. As such it enculturates Practical Theology as a discipline in (South) African and a global network culture. We have been waiting for a Practical Theology that takes the important contribution of African Independent churches regarding faith practices seriously, whilst simultaneously not neglecting the practices of mainline churches. This book is a timely gift that will help with the understanding and appreciation of practices across denominational borders. Cas Wepener, Professor in Homiletics and Liturgy, Faculty of Theology, Stellenbosch University. With this seminal work, Ian Nell opens up a new, and long overdue chapter on the nature and role of practical theology within the South African context. In this regard he pushes against the borders of traditional, particularly Reformed perspectives in innovative ways, broadening the space beyond, but still inclusive of, the ecclesial and rational. In his theo-dramatic take on practical theology, “all the world’s a stage” – a space where all the role players, from churches to diverse cultures to eco-systems come together with the God of the Play. In this space, diff erent texts, in par cular the Biblical one, act as (musical) scoresheets for the Plot – a Plot to be played out on our African soil, and under our African sun.
