요약 : This project begins by suggesting that the question posed by the Hebrews in exile—“How could we sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land?” (Psalm 137)—is descriptive for individuals who experience loss. In the experience of loss, the securities of a life one has known, even of God’s place in that world, the tacit understandings of what Jeffrey Kauffman calls “the assumptive world,” have been lost and there is uncertainty how, or if, one can continue to keep, much less regain, hope in its wake. The project addresses this critical question by developing a theology of hope based primarily on the work of Jürgen Moltmann. Three consolations of Christian hope are offered including: (1) God’s intention to be in solidarity with us; (2) God’s promise of resurrection possibility; (3) Our response of new engagement in the world based on God’s hope for the present and future. The project then suggests that this theology of hope may be used in a pastoral care setting to help individuals advance in the hope-making process. Using Dori Baker’s four steps of story theology, the project provides a method for individuals to share life’s losses and to name the personal consequences of one’s experience of loss, but then turns in the final two steps (experience far and going forth) to introduce the foundational consolations of a theology of hope to suggest that one may begin to reframe life’s losses in the context of God’s promise of resurrection possibilities. The project concludes by drawing from other contemporary theologians, including Flora Keshgegian and Ellen Ott Marshall, in acknowledging that the journey to new hope may happen more haltingly, circuitously and incompletely than Moltmann’s linear-progressive vision of hope development. Nevertheless, the project contends that in the critical move from mournful plea to personal agency—a move made in cooperation with God who lives in compassionate and hopeful solidarity with us—God’s promise of resurrection possibility offers therapeutic value in assisting the grieving, and those who assist the grieving, to begin the process of recasting the seemingly dead-end occasions of loss in the more hopeful light of God’s promised future.
