Abstract

The paper aims to discover how youth at risk of becoming marginalised describe the relations between meaning, faith and belonging. The data consists of 20 individual interviews with young people living in the small rural district of Lammi in southern Finland, including the experiences of three asylum seekers. Thematic analysis of the data indicated that these young people experienced lack of belonging on the levels of relationships and life context. Formations of personal faith and meaning in life become contested when it is not possible to find belonging. Meaning and belonging are found to be the roots for the growth of faith.
缺乏归属感扰乱了意义和信仰的形成
这篇论文旨在发现有被边缘化风险的年轻人如何描述意义、信仰和归属之间的关系。该数据包括对居住在芬兰南部拉姆米小农村地区的年轻人的20次个人访谈,包括三名寻求庇护者的经历。对数据的专题分析表明,这些年轻人在人际关系和生活环境方面缺乏归属感。当无法找到归属时,个人信仰和生活意义的形成就会受到质疑。意义和归属感是信仰成长的根源。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Youth and Theology is an international peer-reviewed academic journal developed and originally published by the IASYM, the International Association for the Study of Youth Ministry, now published by Brill. The journal aims at furthering the academic study and research of youth and youth ministry, and the formal teaching and training of youth ministry. The academic efforts are rooted in the Christian theological tradition and ecumenical. The scope of the journal is to serve scholarship in the broad field of children, youth, faith, church, theology and culture. Research articles in the journal mainly have theology (both practical, systematic and biblical theology) as a core discipline. At the same time, contributions are often interdisciplinary, which implies theological reflection combined with e.g. pedagogical, sociological or psychological perspectives.
