What is Relational Theology? November 30, 2006
Posted by Erik in Definitions.8 comments
The essence of relational theology is that God and man are intrically involved. Human beings were created with an essential connection to God which is severed by self-serving actions, namely sin.
Based on this, our objective is to more or less examine everything about God, people and the Bible in terms of relationship rather than in the light of theological schemes or interpretive structures.
What it boils down to is that severed and/or dysfunctional relationships are the disruptive forces in everything. It is an exploration, hopefully with some community involvement, to rediscover the nature of God’s relationship to man and reconnect.
