영문 초록

This article suggests an eco-feminist divine model of ‘God the Mother as Land (Terrain)’ reinterpreted from ‘God the Father’ in the Trinity in Korean context. The purpose of this theological endeavor is a devout hope for a theological solution to the all-pervading patriarchy in the contemporary Korean Protestant Church, where sexism and eco-antipathy are at its heart. This model takes an eco-feminist approach and employs a Feng Shui cosmology from an East Asian perspective, through a way of new hermeneutics and reconstruction theology. This attempt goes beyond the scope of the traditional hermeneutical theology of Christian language and challenges to break away from the patriarchy of traditional Christianity through an ecofeminist theology. This adopts a contextual approach to an eco-feminist imagining of God, based on the yin and yang symbolic thinking of Feng Shui, and aimed at being inclusive and restorative towards Korean women, and nature.
