Abstract
This article contends that Hartmut Rosa's resonance theory can stimulate ecclesiological imagination regarding the relationship of churches to their contexts. After a brief explanation of Rosaâs central images, the argument turns to their ecclesiological relevance. Churches are called to generate an integrative transformative dynamic in which vertical resonance with God correlates with resonance on the horizontal and diagonal axes. Rosaâs images of an oasis and an echo chamber help to identify ecclesiological one-sidedness, while the diachronic dimension of the vertical axis shows that resonance is also rooted in the historical depth of Christian tradition. Using an actual congregation as a testcase, the article demonstrates that genuine resonance requires both openness to the Spirit in the present and participation in practices handed down across centuries.
