VENTER, R.. Theology and context: enquiry about a theology for South Africa. Acta theol. [online]. 2016, vol.36, n.2, pp.178-198. ISSN 2309-9089. http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/actat.v36i2.10.
This article addresses what it implies to do theology with a "sense of place". The question is raised about a responsible theology for South Africa and it is situated methodologically within the contemporary imperative of considering "context" as a major source for theology. The article acknowledges various theological attempts at taking the South African reality seriously. The central argument of the article consists of three moves. A suggestion is given as to what might constitute "responsible theology"; a brief profile presents the multifaceted character of the present South African horizon, and a constructive proposal stresses hermeneutical revisionings of Trinitarian theology, soteriology (Gospel), ecclesiology (identity and community), and spirituality.
