Download or read book Ecclesial Futures Volume 2 Issue 1 written by Nigel Rooms and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-06-02 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecclesial Futures publishes original research and theological reflection on the development and transformation of local Christian communities and the systems that support them as they join in the mission of God in the world. We understand local Christian communities broadly to include traditional “parish” churches and independent local churches, religious communities and congregations, new church plants, so-called “fresh expressions” of church, “emergent” churches, and “new monastic” communities. We are an international and ecumenical journal with an interdisciplinary understanding of our approach to theological research and reflection; the core disciplines being theology, missiology, and ecclesiology. Other social science and theological disciplines may be helpful in supporting the holistic nature of any research, e.g., anthropology and ethnography, sociology, statistical research, biblical studies, leadership studies, and adult learning. The journal fills an important reflective space between the academy and on-the-ground practice within the field of mission studies, ecclesiology, and the so-called “missional church.” This opportunity for engagement has emerged in the last twenty or so years from a turn to the local (and the local church) and, in the western world at least, from the demise of Christendom and a rapidly changing world—which also affects the church globally. The audience for the journal is truly global wherever the local church and the systems that support them exists. We expect to generate interest from readers in church judicatory bodies, theological seminaries, university theology departments, and in local churches from all God’s people and the leaders amongst them.

Download or read book Mission in Crisis written by Ralph Kunz and published by Evangelische Verlagsanstalt. This book was released on 2024-04-26 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: »Mission in crisis« – this diagnosis makes immediate sense in view of the rapid decline of European Christian churches. However, there is a great deal of controversy as to what exactly this crisis consists of, what its actual causes are and what dynamics the crisis discourse itself exhibits. The contributions in this volume were held on an international conference that took place from November 25–27, 2022 at the University of Zurich. They pursue these questions from a mission-theological perspective and seek to open up new perspectives for the future of the church in both secular and plural societies. With contributions from: Heike Breitenstein, John G. Flett, Ralph Kunz, Sabrina Müller, Stefan Paas, Henk de Roest, Stefan Schweyer, Patrick Todjeras, Graham Tomlin, Benno van den Toren, and Henning Wrogemann. [Mission in der Krise. Über eine unerledigte Aufgabe der Kirche] »Mission in der Krise« – diese Diagnose leuchtet im Blick den rapiden Niedergang europäischer christlicher Kirchen unmittelbar ein. Allerdings ist heftig umstritten, worin genau diese Krise besteht, was ihre eigentlichen Ursachen sind und welche Dynamik der Krisendiskurs selbst aufweist. Die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes stammen von einer internationalen, vom 25.–27.11.2022 an der Universität Zürich abgehaltenen Tagung. Sie gehen diesen Fragen in missionstheologischer Perspektive nach und suchen neue Perspektiven für die Zukunft von Kirche in ebenso säkularen wie pluralen Gesellschaften zu eröffnen.
