Abstract

From a practical theological perspective, this article disputes the trend in present ecclesiastical thought, abstracting a model depicting the practical functioning of the church, which is based on a single biblical metaphor. The body-of-Christ metaphor is commonly used as a church model. The eagerness to implement this construct is inspired by a paradigm shift and the incorporation of the communicative actions theory at the level of meta-theory. The hypothesis of this research is that, once the matrix of this meta-theory has been clearly identified, it must be applied to the aspects of church life. All the biblical metaphors shedding light on the functioning of the church need re-interpretation within the framework of a postmodern society and symmetrical communicative patterns. This way of constructing an ecclesiastical perspective, would lead to a more balanced church praxis.
