Abstract

This paper is a response to Heather Walton’s 2017 Presidential Address to the International Academy of Practical Theology, “A Theopoetics of Practice – Re-forming in Practical Theology.” It explores a key question raised by Walton: “If we were to construct a way of imagining a theopoetics of practical theology, what would it look like?” The paper critiques systematic and speculative thinking, reflects on Holy Saturday, and offers a poetic reflection on creation and natural love.
