| Summary: | This article examines how the topic of climate crisis is addressed in Reformed preaching in the Dutch context. It explores a third way of ecotheology as revisionism between apologetics and reconstructionism. The textual material from several annual prayer services for the harvest functions as empirical case study. Concern for creation and dependence on God emerge as key themes, though their elaboration is often lacking in specificity. Using Walter Brueggemann’s Old Testament concept of reality, grief, and hope as prophetic dimensions, the article outlines how Reformed anthropology incorporates elements of reality and grief that can help foster hopeful preaching while acknowledging God as the creator of all life to which we are intrinsically connected. |
