ABSTRACT
[...]14 articles were accepted and published after peer review. Indicating that overwhelming feelings of resentment and revenge by individuals in emotionally wounded and traumatised communities inflicted by injustice, violence and oppressive systems, often become a way of life, and people seldom deal with forgiveness in their healing process, Rudy Denton explores a process of spiritual healing and life fulfilment that relates to a forgiveness process. By defining liturgy in a broad sense, not only to refer to the liturgical elements of a worship service but also to the liturgy of life, they argue that liturgy within the church service context, but especially with what happens outside in life, can play a crucial role in helping Christians to become anti-racist. Coetsee argues that the book of Hebrews is one of the most fitting biblical books to shed light on how the phenomena can be addressed, as Hebrews was written to a church that experienced a decline in faith commitment.
