dc.description.abstract |
The main aim of this article is to develop a theory for praxis with regards to multicultural
worship in South Africa. With this aim in mind qualitative research were undertaken in
three denominationally different congregations namely Dutch Reformed, Roman Catholic
and Charismatic. The research question was “what are the ritual-liturgical qualities that
make sustainable multicultural worship possible with the goal of enhancing social cohesion
and reconciliation?” After a discussion of the theoretical points of departure of the research
project the congregations and collected data are presented and ritual-liturgical qualities are
identified. The article concludes by revisiting these qualities rephrasing them into a preliminary
theory for praxis which could possibly enhance the development of more sustainable
multicultural worship services in the South African society. |
