Mass trauma is unfortunately a reality in the United States. Violence, disease and natural disasters inevitably raise questions about where God is to be found in the midst of tragedy. Often religious leaders are called upon to offer an opinion and an explanation from the Word of God. Fractured Ground helps pastors craft sermons that fully plumb the disorienting suffering created by events of mass trauma, while still offering an authentic word of hope. Drawing on the burgeoning field of trauma studies, eschatological theologies of hope, scriptural wisdom, and liturgies of lament, Kimberly Wagner helps preachers imagine what it might mean to preach a narratively fractured sermon in the aftermath of a communal traumatic event, ultimately affirming that no amount of brokenness is beyond the presence and promise of God.
