The caring church as a worshipping communityTheron, Bruce B. V. 11 1900 (has links)
The dissertation starts from the premise that we are living in an increasingly individualistic and
secular society. The church is seen as a worshipping community, where mutual care emanating
from true Christian community could serve as a corrective to current fragmentation.
A theory is developed of the church as a caring and worshipping faith community which exists
alongside other communities. The church therefore exists to enable people to embody the gospel
ideals in their lives. The whole Christian community must thus be seen to be offering the love,
compassion and acceptance that is needed today. This role can be enhanced by encouraging
training in caring skills. The faith community exercises its nurturing support system through the
fusion of horizons as members seek to give expression to their faith.
This faith community functions against the background of the myriad of relationships and
different communities in which its members find themselves in. / Philosophy, Practical & Systematic Theology / M. Th. (Practical Theology)
