På 1940-talet började Kyrkohistoriska arkivet vid Lunds Universitet arbeta med att klarlägga förändringar i den samtida kyrkliga seden.

Genom dessa LUKA-listor har den kyrkliga seden inventerats för hela landet med jämna mellanrum från och med 1962. År 2

Syftet med den här uppsatsen var att analysera synen på nationalsocialism i de svenskkyrkliga tidningarna Göteborgs Stifts-Tidning, Kyrka och folk, Svensk kyrkotidning och Vår Lösen.

This thesis aims to contribute to the theological discussion of how a critical and constructive pneumatology could be seen in the context of the Church of Sweden today.

The purpose of this master thesis in practical theology is to investigate the reasons for choices of hymns made by parents baptising their children in the Church of Sweden.

The method used is semi structured interviews of eleven parents whose childre

The episcopate has been much debated in the twentieth century, both in the Church of Sweden and ecumenically. The purpose of the thesis is to study how it has been discussed within the Church of Sweden, using the priest and reformer Gunnar Rosendal (1897?1988) as point of departure. Methodologically speaking, a single individual is studied in order to shed light on a broad historical and ideologic

How many times have you heard that if children are in church they should be quiet and still? It was common to hear when I was young that children should go out as soon as they started making any noise.
