- Abstract
- When employed in the liturgical and communal life of worshiping communities, biblical metaphors become vital tools in communicating the promises of God thereby shaping congregational identity. This project seeks to demonstrate that an intentional practice of metaphor enables faith communities to testify to the work and wonder of God. The report explores the theological and liturgical importance of biblical metaphors before examining one particular community's engagement with a biblical metaphor, Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Woodstock, Georgia. Observed through a hermeneutic of testimony, Good Shepherd Lutheran Church's exploration of 'wilderness' makes a strong case for the practice of metaphor.
