Assessment of Yale School’s Narrative Theology Model with Emphasis on the Concept of Narration
Narrative is a way to understand human affairs. Among these is the understanding of man himself. Human experiences need a mediator called narrative to be understood. It provides a possibility for self-expression, known as engaged self. This engaged self in the religious lived world is affected by the narratives that shape experiences. A movement in Christian theology called Narrative Theology attempted to show that the religious man's understanding of himself in the modern world is formed through biblical stories. Addressing the problem of human requirements in the modern world, narrative theology designed a system of thought based on narrative. This article aims to show the meaning of engaged self-based on narrative, and then, with a brief presentation of Yale school's narrative theology, it will describe the basis of the narrative concept. Finally, it will present criticisms based on the narrative concept by evaluating the mentioned theology.
