Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper explores how the practical theology of peacebuilding in the Hong Kong context can be developed through a narrative landscape. This paper introduces the Cultivating Peace project in Hong Kong and delineates its methodological concerns. Its analysis shows that the narrative practice guides the project in the following ways: (1) Narratives in the Bible can be articulated as foundational metaphors for peacebuilding work. (2) Narrative practice enables people to express and acknowledge their inner suffering and anger. (3) Narrative practice emphasises the importance of the voices of the marginalised groups and the primacy of their choices. (4) In a period when justice cannot be fully achieved, narrative practice records voices and stories of the suffering ones and the oppressed.
