Book excerpt: "Christianity and Progress" by Harry Emerson Fosdick is a seminal work that grapples with the evolving relationship between Christianity and the modern world. Published in 1922, Fosdick, a prominent American pastor and theologian, addresses the challenges and opportunities presented by the rapid changes of the early 20th century. In the book, Fosdick navigates the tensions between traditional Christian beliefs and the advancements of science, technology, and social reform. He argues for a progressive interpretation of Christianity that embraces intellectual inquiry and social change while remaining rooted in the core principles of the faith. Fosdick's writing is characterized by its thoughtful analysis and engaging prose, which makes complex theological ideas accessible to a broad audience. He draws upon biblical teachings, historical insights, and contemporary observations to construct his argument for a Christianity that is both relevant and responsive to the needs of the modern world. Central to Fosdick's thesis is the idea that Christianity should be a force for progress, promoting justice, compassion, and human flourishing. He challenges readers to rethink traditional interpretations of scripture in light of new knowledge and experiences, urging Christians to embrace a more inclusive and forward-thinking approach to their faith. "Christianity and Progress" remains a significant work in the field of Christian theology and ethics, inspiring generations of scholars, clergy, and laypeople to engage critically with the intersection of religion and society. Fosdick's insights continue to resonate today, offering a compelling vision of Christianity as a dynamic and transformative force in the ongoing march of human progress.

Download or read book C S Lewis and the Catholic Church written by Joseph Pearce and published by TAN Books. This book was released on 2013 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C. S. Lewis, the great British novelist and Christian apologist, has been credited by many-including the author-for aiding their journey to the Catholic Church. For this reason, it is often perplexing that Lewis himself never became Catholic. In C. S. Lewis and the Catholic Church, Joseph Pearce delves into Lewis's life, writings, and spiritual influences to shed light on the matter. Although C. S. Lewis's conversion to Christianity was greatly influenced by J. R. R. Tolkien, a Catholic, and although Lewis embraced many distinctively Catholic teachings, such as purgatory and the sacrament of Confession, he never formally entered the Church. Meticulously researched and beautifully written, this book digs deep to present the facts of Lewis's life, to illuminate key points in his writings, and to ask the question: Was C. S. Lewis on the path to Rome? This revised and updated edition-with a new introduction by Father Dwight Longenecker-is a fascinating historical, biographical, theological, and literary account of a man whose writings have led scores to the Catholic Church, despite never having become a Catholic himself.
Download or read book After Progress written by John Michael Greer and published by New Society Publisher. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed climate futurist examines our unquestioning faith in progress, and its limits in the face of peak oil and climate change. Since the Industrial Age began, scientific and technological progress has been nothing short of miraculous. As a result, progress itself has become the new religion of the West. Our faith in it is so complete that many of us ignore the perils of peak oil and climate change, believing that our lab-coated high priests will surely bring forth yet another miracle to save us all. Unfortunately, progress as we've known it has been entirely dependent on the breakneck exploitation of half a billion years of stored sunlight in the form of fossil fuels. As the age of this cheap, abundant energy draws to a close, progress is grinding to a halt. Unforgiving planetary limits are teaching us that our blind faith in endless exponential growth is a dangerous myth. After Progress addresses this looming paradigm shift, exploring the shape of history from a perspective on the far side of the coming crisis. With a startling examination of the role our belief systems play in our collective fate, John Michael Greer makes a persuasive argument for seeking new sources of meaning, value, and hope for the era ahead.

Download or read book Love Me Anyway written by Jared C. Wilson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There may be no more powerful desire in the human heart than to be loved. And not just loved, but loved anyway. In spite of what we've done or left undone, in spite of the ways we have failed or floundered. We long for an unconditional, lavish love that we know intrinsically we don't deserve. If you are tired, sad, yet always longing, bestselling author Jared C. Wilson has incredible news for you: that kind of love actually exists, and it is actually something you can experience--whether or not you're in a romantic relationship. In his signature reflective, conversational, and often humorous style, Wilson unpacks 1 Corinthians 13 to show us what real love looks like. Through engaging stories and touching anecdotes, he paints a picture of an extravagant God who not only puts the desire for love into our very souls but fulfills those desires in striking, life-changing ways.

Book excerpt: # Why are there many churches, yet major problems in Black communities?# Why are Blacks amongst the most Jesus-Praising people in the world, yet the most fragmented and economically dependent?# Is there a correlation between high praising and low productivity?Holy Lockdown addresses the paradox that exists within the Black community. One that reflects the abundance of Black churches coupled with the abundance of Black problems. There are approximately 85,000 predominately Black churches in this country, meaning, we could have 1,700 Black churches in every state!Holy Lockdown takes a critical and long overdue look at the psychological impact the church and sermonic rhetoric has made on the Black collective, and it explores the possibility of the church as being a contributing factor to many social problems facing Blacks.
