Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald M. MacKinnon has been one of the most important and influential of the post-World War British theologians, significantly impacting the development and subsequent work of the likes of Rowan Williams, Nicholas Lash and John Milbank, among many other notable theologians. A younger generation largely emerging from Cambridge, but with influence elsewhere, has more recently brought MacKinnon’s eclectic and occasionalist work to a larger audience worldwide. In this collection, MacKinnon’s central writings on the major themes of ecclesiology, and especially the relationship of the church to theology, are gathered in one source. The volume will feature several of MacKinnon’s important early texts. These will include two short books published in the “Signposts” series during World War II, and a collection of later essays entitled “The Stripping of the Altars.”

Book The Way of the Kenotic Christ

Download or read book The Way of the Kenotic Christ written by Samuel J. Youngs and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite his vast importance to twentieth-century theology, Jurgen Moltmann's Christology has yet to receive the same level of in-depth exploration as other topics in his thought. Samuel Youngs addresses this lacuna, providing the first exhaustive analysis of Moltmann's doctrine of Christ, including its key developments and controversial elements. Youngs argues that Moltmann's doctrine of Christ is best understood as a unique variation of kenotic Christology. This vision of Christ encapsulates not only a series of vibrant ethical and eschatological points, but also serves Moltmann's overarching theological goal of empowering a church that lives and ministers "under the cross." Part I highlights key facets of Moltmann's theological method before unfolding the range of diverse themes that characterize his Christology. Part II explores Moltmann's use of the "kenosis hymn" of Philippians 2, before interrogating Moltmann's relationship to christological tradition. Part III engages in an original systematization of Moltmann's Christology, centered on the theme of manifold, relational kenosis.

Book excerpt: The author of the book argues that the concept of kenosis in Phil 2:7 could be used as a normative theme in response to various ecclesial challenges. First, he highlights the ecclesial reality within the context of the church in Philippi in which the kenotic model was introduced. Second, he surveys the meaning of kenosis in scholarly literature. Third, the author uses the kenotic paradigm to construct an ecclesial theology that emphasizes the consequential aspect of kenosis in relation to the pressing ethical issues that face the church.

Book Enacting a Public Theology

Download or read book Enacting a Public Theology written by Clive Pearson and published by AFRICAN SUN MeDIA. This book was released on 2019-12-13 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of a public theology is to identify issues that require attention for the sake of a civil society and the flourishing of all. In diverse ways the writers of Enacting a Public Theology recognise that the present is a volatile moment in time. The publication explores the loss of confidence in the contemporary expressions of democracy; the climate emergency accompanies the dawn of the Anthropocene; the migration of people raises concerns to do with identity, belonging and where is home; the invasion of land wrongly described as terra nullius and then invaded demands a deepened praxis of reconciliation between first and second peoples; and lastly there is an urgent need to speak into the situation of those pushed to the margins because of HIV/Aids. Enacting a Public Theology represents the thinking of writers from Australia and Aotearoa-New Zealand. It is both local and global in its concern. Each one of the contributors participated in the triennial gathering of the Global Network of Public Theology held in Stellenbosch in 2016.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholic ecclesiology stands at the threshold of a new moment in the reception of the Second Vatican Council. The election of Pope Francis- coinciding with the fiftieth anniversary of the council-has inspired a fresh consideration of its teaching in such diverse areas as ecumenism, inculturation, missiology, and ministry. The chapters in this volume have their origin in a special symposium honoring the ecclesiological legacy of Thomas F. O'Meara, OP. The symposium called together over forty leading North American scholars in order to discuss the future of Catholic theological reflection on the church-a conversation that offers an entry into some of the most pressing issues in ecclesiology today.

Book Liquid Ecclesiology

    Book Details:
  • Author : Pete Ward
  • Publisher : BRILL
  • Release : 2017-06-06
  • ISBN : 9004347356
  • Pages : 227 pages

Download or read book Liquid Ecclesiology written by Pete Ward and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Liquid Ecclesiology Pete Ward explores the theological contours of the turn to ethnography in the study of the Christian Church. His approach rests on a theology of culture that holds in tension and paradox the expression of the Church and divine presence. This theological framework is then developed through an extended qualitative empirical case study examining the communicative practices of the contemporary evangelical Church. The case study examines how the evangelical Gospel through expression has become marginalised in the everyday life of communities being replaced by a new more individual and personalised theology seen in worship songs. The final section of the book returns to the debates around ethnographic forms of theology and the question of normativity. This book will be of interest to all those engaged in empirical and theological work, as well as those researching the contemporary Church and evangelicalism

Book Triune Well Being

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jacqueline Service
  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2024-07-08
  • ISBN : 1978715161
  • Pages : 233 pages

Download or read book Triune Well Being written by Jacqueline Service and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-07-08 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That God is the perfection of all-blessed abundance, and the source and context for creation’s well-being, tends merely to be assumed in theology. Yet, how does God enact all-blessedness and actualize God’s own abundantly enriched life? And how might such a reality be relevant to human well-being? Addressing these questions in Triune Well-Being: The Kenotic-Enrichment of the Eternal Trinity, Jacqueline Service traces the dynamics of Divine well-being through Scripture, Christian metaphysics, and a synthesis of Orthodox (Bulgakov), Catholic (Von Balthasar), and Protestant (Pannenberg) Trinitarian theologies to argue that God’s “all-blessed” life, the glory of well-being, is symbiotic with triune self-giving (kenosis); a concept identified as “kenotic-enrichment” or “enriching-kenosis.” Such a trinitarian exploration not only offers a fresh perspective on the contested topic of kenosis but goes to the heart of a doctrine of God that implicates the possibility of the well-being of all life.

Book Justice  Mercy  and Well Being

Download or read book Justice Mercy and Well Being written by Peter G. Bolt and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays examines how God’s justice and mercy intersect in the lives of individuals and their communities, with a view to the establishment of personal and social well-being in the world. The authors, drawn from England and Australia, approach the theme from a variety of methodological and interdisciplinary perspectives. Theological, exegetical, historical, healthcare, moral, and visual arts approaches are brought to bear in an investigation relevant for the identity and mission of the church in a world characterized by cycles of revenge, the perpetration of injustice, and the marginalization and persecution of various ethnic groups. The practical outcome of these studies has wide-ranging relevance for our attitudes toward indigenous peoples, the well-being of single and married people, healthcare throughout the ages, the spiritual care of people (including those suffering dementia), the personal experience of trauma, issues of moral judgement, and the abiding value of the creative arts.
