Die opbou van ’n missionale gemeente: ’n Verkenning van die invloed van Godsbegrip en liturgiese ervaring

摘要

The building up of a local missional congregation: The understanding of God and liturgy . The purpose of this article is to investigate the understanding of God by members of the Netherdutch Reformed Church ( Nederduitsch Hervormde Kerk van Afrika ?[NHKA]), their liturgical experience and its influence on the development of a missional congregation. The world is currently in the midst of a wave of changes that have far-reaching implications for the church and, specifically, for the NHKA. In a changing world it is imperative that church members understand the value of the different metaphors of God as well as its value for the development of the missional congregation. From a practical-theological approach, this article aims to look at the influence of the liturgy of life on the development of a missional congregation.
