This article attempts to construct liturgical theology through integrating worship, theology, and culture in the light of theology of culture. As a distinctive discipline seeking for theological understanding of the practice of Christian worship, liturgical theology includes the influence of culture on worship or cultural understanding of worship in the major themes of its research. When it comes to methodological approach to worship and culture, there have been three main positions. The first position is Nairobi Statement which figures out the relationship between worship and culture based on Niebuhr's paradigm. The second one is inculturation of worship/liturgy as seen in the case of Anscar Chupungco. The Third one is multiculturalism which is broadly practiced in evangelical worship. Although each of these methodological approaches contributes to renewal of Christian worship worldwide, there are some limitations to be considered in order to apply them to each different worship practice. While critically analyzing and evaluating these three methodological approaches, this article endeavors to newly deal with that issue in the perspective of theology of culture. In particular, this article premises that worship could be understood and interpreted as a distinctive culture. As an appropriate methodology of approaching to worship as culture, Paul Ricoeur’s theology of culture (poetic and narrative theory of culture) could be liturgically adopted. Although it does not offer any practical methods of implementing Ricoeur’s poetic approach to worship, this article methodologically presents an opportunity and possibility of organizing the traditional components of worship as narrative of merging human story into God’s story in a creative/poectic way.
