Abstract:
If one presumes that we are today living in the anthropocene, how does this challenge the
doing of public theology? What is the calling of a public theologian in the anthropocene?
To be able to answer these questions, this article shortly described the anthropocene and then
sought to unpack a possible doing of theology in a particular local context, within the time
of the anthropocene, creating (poiesis) a deconstructive space for possible resurrection life to
emerge.
