| Summary: | Offers the concept of worldframes as a way to understand God-talk used by people in grief, trauma, and suffering. Describes worldframes as individualized cognitive structures of knowledge and language that set boundaries within culture and theology, identifiable by four root metaphors that characterize different kinds of God-talk. Suggests ways to minister with comfort and hope, respecting the forms of God-talk used by people who seek to find meaning and purpose in times of trouble, while allowing ministers to maintain their own integrity of theology and beliefs. |
