- W181787241 abstract "nnn This thesis examines the relationship between spiritual, social and ecological dimensions within The Salvation Army. The relationship between these three elements is investigated using the methodological framework of practical theology and contains three distinct segments. The first element is a review of ecologically-aware Christian theology and mission literature, and mutually critical correlations with non-Christian ecological literature. The second is historical research on Salvationist precedents for spiritual, social, and ecological engagement and praxis, and an examination of current projects and literature within The Salvation Army. The third section is an analysis of the perceived relationships between these three elements within current Salvation Army discourse and mission.nnn This third segment applies a grounded theory approach to a series of interviews undertaken with individuals who have a significant connection with The Salvation Army within the South Queensland Division of the Australia Eastern Territory. The interview findings reveal three emergent streams of Salvationist understandings of the Church's relationship between the spiritual, social and ecological and involvement in this interconnected discourse, mission and praxis: (1) the spiritual or Economy of God: 'We have a responsibility to Godr; (2) the social or Ecumenics: lWe need to balance what we dor; and (3) the ecological or relationship to creation: lThere really is a wholeness about the Earth.rnnn Overall, the findings corroborated a number of other research findings in the literature and have uncovered some particularly Salvationist-related themes. Participants generally have a deep respect for the natural world. The most significant variations of opinion relate to climate change, yet the vast majority of participants support caring for creation and agree there are socially responsible, logical and scriptural imperatives for caring for the environment. Responsible stewardship is seen as the proper response to Godrs provision, whereas sin and greed are linked with irresponsibility, pollution and social and environmental injustices. There are financial, evangelistic, mental, health and spiritual benefits when spiritual, social and ecological matters are united." @default.
