Not only are the church and theology fully aware of this, but they are directly affected. This study is an endeavour to assess where the church, theology and believing community in South Africa, and particularly the Nederduitsch Hervormde Kerk, finds themselves against the background of a world-wide shift in paradigms. The study concludes with a few remarks regarding statements, positive and negative, which are being voiced by leaders in the church and by theologians within the Nederduitsch Hervormde Kerk. These remarks focus on how the Nederduitsch Hervormde Kerk should meet the approaching millenium. It is obvious that the church is nearing a very exiting, but crucial time in its vocation as church.AfrikaansFaculty of Theology, University of PretoriaNederduitsche Hervormde KerkParadigmsKerkwees in veranderde tye: Die Nederduitsch Hervormde Kerk teen die agtergrond van verskuiwende paradigmasBeing church in times of change: The Nederduitsch Hervormde Kerk against the background of shifting paradigmsArticle
