Reflecting Theologically on COVID-19
Practical theologians are well-placed to respond to the current global pandemic involving the COVID-19 virus. Everything is changing and we know we haven’t been here before in responding locally and globally to such a threat to life. Theological reflection on our experience is vital and potentially life-giving in such a time. It seems only reasonable, therefore to dedicate an issue of the international journal Practical Theology before the end of 2020 to the current crisis. We are looking for original research, theological reflections and autoethnographies on any aspect of the crisis as well as poetry, art and even music. Here are just some of the areas authors may like to contribute in;
- suffering & trauma
- isolation
- mass death
- healthcare practices
- economics
- working and worshipping solely online
- the move to online teaching and learning in theology
