Abstract This article articulates a challenge to discern what form theopoetics might take within practical theology and, further, to engage with the construction of modes of theopoetic making appropriate to the discipline. To date there has been little conceptual engagement with theopoetics by practical theologians. In order to begin to address this lack Catherine Keller’s work is taken as indicative of the potential significance of this project. An examination of theopoetics within constructive theology highlights the necessity for practical theologians to create their own distinctive forms of theopoetical reflection honouring their disciplinary heritage. It is suggested that a ‘theopoetics of practice’ might be created in the manner of a bricolage from neglected cultural resources. The work embodies in its writing style the creative work it advocates.

实践神学：实践神学的改革

摘要 本文阐述了一项挑战，即辨别神学在实践神学中可能采取的形式，并进一步参与构建适合该学科的神学制作模式。迄今为止，实践神学家对神学的概念性参与很少。为了开始解决这一不足，凯瑟琳凯勒的工作被视为该项目潜在意义的指示。对建设性神学中的神学的考察强调了实践神学家创造他们自己独特的神学反思形式的必要性，以尊重他们的学科遗产。有人建议，可能会以拼凑被忽视的文化资源的方式创造一种“实践神学”。
