“God” is a Concept, God is Not? The Promise of Postcolonial Epistemology for the Use of Grounded Theory in Empirical Theology
This paper explores the intersection of theology, postcolonialism, and theory-building within empirical theology, highlighting the complex interplay between linguistic constructions and lived experiences of the divine. Drawing on postcolonial epistemology, the study advocates an inductive research strategy, particularly through the use of Grounded Theory methodology. It critically engages with ongoing debates within Grounded Theory, emphasizing t…
Expanding and Democratizing Knowledge
(Participatory) citizen science is a research strategy that is strongly promoted by various research institutes throughout continental Europe. The basic idea behind this approach is to include citizens in the research process with the aim of more closely interrelating science and daily life, while increasing the impact of scientific findings on individuals and communities. With that said, participatory citizen science has rarely been used in the …
Beyond Theory and Practice
This article approaches the relationship between theory and practice based on Lived Theology. The concept is introduced through empirical insights and an overview of various definitions. Additionally, the article highlights the implications of Lived Theology on the field of academic theology and the concept of theology itself. Subsequently, Lived Theology is juxtaposed with the research field of Empirical Theology. The article explores how Lived …
Religious Experience and Its Transformational Power
The author approaches the phenomenon 'religious experience' through a qualitative study in which young, urban people from Europe and the USA are empirically examined. It becomes clear that individuals themselves are constructive agents of experience and theology. Religious experience manifests itself as a transformative perspective of hope in the lives of young people. The study ends with a plea for a theology from below, based on liberation theo…
Smart Theology and Social Competency
Based on an interdisciplinary study of practical theology, pedagogy, and business education, this article elaborates on aspects of social competence, digitality, engagement, and lived theology. The article further describes in which areas and how often young adults completing vocational training are involved in society and the church and how they use their smartphones. In addition, the young people’s assessment of the opportunities and risks of d…

Religiös-polyphone Kommunikation jenseits der Kanzel
»I don't feel I have been taught to preach as myself. I've been taught to preach like a man.« (L. Shercliff, Preaching Women: Gender, Power and the Pulpit, 2019, xv). A narrowing of perspectives characterises current German-language homiletics (sermon teaching). University curricula of homiletic seminars make this visible in a good way: female and queer voices, as well as people of colour, are hardly represented here. In the Anglo-American world,…
Theological Empowerment of Lay Leaders
The present research project addresses the question of how the theological literacy and agency of volunteer church leaders can be fostered so that cooperative church leadership can be achieved. The Protestant Churches of the Canton of St. Gallen (Switzerland) and Austria, together with the Centre for Church Development of the University of Zurich, designed a participatory research process. The aim was to increase the communicative and participati…
Fresh Expressions of Church and the Mixed Economy
The term “fresh expressions of church” has been used since 2004 in the Church of England to refer to small contextual churches that start alongside but aim to be different to parish churches. What is characteristic of a fresh expression of church is not its newness, but its ability to pass on and contextualize inherited theology, ecclesiology, tradition, and spiritual experience. The ecclesiology of fresh expressions of church can be summarized a…
Church Development from a Missional Perspective
The following article suggests considering church development from a missional point of view. Accordingly, at first an overview is provided of some missional movements from around the world. Although the emerging missional movements in the world differ, they still have a number of similarities. The following article presents these similarities in the form of a debate. A learning field for church development emerges from this, which reveals the po…
Abgehängte Bildungsinstitutionen
Die empirische Bildungsforschung weist schon seit Jahrzehnten regelmäßig auf benachteiligte Personengruppen im Bildungssystem hin. Dabei hat sich der Prototyp des benachteiligten Kindes verändert: Aus dem „katholischen Arbeitermädchen vom Lande“ (Peisert 1967) ist der „Junge mit Migrationshintergrund“ geworden (Geißler 2005). Als relativ konstant hat sich im Laufe der Zeit die Benachteiligung von Kindern aus Elternhäusern der unteren sozialen Lag…
