Narrative TheologyNarrative theology was a late 20th century theological development which supported the idea that the Church's use of the Bible should focus on a narrative presentation of the faith, rather than on the development of a systematic theology. The Christian faith is thus also to be interpreted by the Christian community, and not by outside scholars or explorers. Narrative theology has also been referred to as post-liberalism. Beginning as a reaction to theological liberalism, important narrative thinkers included George Lindbeck, Hans Frei, Stanley Hauerwas, and William Willimon. While the movement still exists in the 21st century, much of its thrust was absorbed by other movements, such as paleo-orthodoxy, the so-called emerging church movement, and traditional evangelicalism.
