\u00a0In this alt.worship installment, the curators create a space for people to (de)construct Church. The experience is comprised of two discursive \u201cmoves\u201d that invite participants to explore themselves as individuals and as participants in a system called \u201cChurch.\u201d We will be taking as our silent conversation partner John Caputo, a philosopher who brings deconstruction to bear on religion, theology, and the church. Our MC for this event is Qohelet, the prophetic preacher in the book of Ecclesiastes. We invite you to join us through this labyrinth experience and to use this as you see fit for other liturgical contexts. This labyrinth experience functions like an art installation, where worshipers are free to move through the stations at their own pace and according to the movement of the Spirit.<\/p>\n

This labryinth is both an illustration of theory at work within liturgical praxis, but it can also provide teachers with a tool for illustrating alternative worship. Welcome to the Dungeon!<\/p>\n
