Download or read book Narrative as Reality How do we perceive reality and how is it depicted in theories written by Austin Gragg and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-07-19 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2016 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 97, University of Colorado at Boulder, language: English, abstract: In this essay the role perception and/or memory play in our understanding of reality will be analyzed. How is this understanding accounted for or depicted in representations or theories about reality and what larger conclusions can we draw from this? The interpretation of reality is a fascinating topic for exploration for a variety of reasons. Despite inhabiting our own realities and living a unique human experience as ourselves, we generally have no way to access what it would be like to have someone else’s experience. I will attempt to contain the concepts in this essay in limited fashion, but obviously terms such as subconscious are not fully comprehended and thus are subject to interpretation and understanding. However, I take subconscious to deal with complex phenomena such as self-preservation, identity, motivations, desires, fears and so forth. On the other hand the ‘mind’s eye’ if you will is whatever thoughts are being held up and examined or being explored by your active willing. The long and short is, various things are happening in the deep layers of consciousness but what is in your minds eye is that which has caught your attention.

Download or read book The Triune God written by Fred Sanders and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A constructive study of Trinitarian theology that aims to clarify our knowledge of the triune God by rightly ordering the theological language we use to praise him. The Triune God reaches its conclusions about how this doctrine should be handled on the basis of the way the Trinity was revealed. As such, theologian Fred Sanders: Invites a doxological invitation to the reader to contemplate the mystery of the Trinity. Establishes the biblical exposition and draws the doctrinal implications from it. Offers dogmatic principles for Trinitarian exegesis. Though Sanders does interact with major voices from the history of doctrine—and his arguments are indebted to and informed by the great tradition of Trinitarianism—he is clear throughout that Trinitarianism is a gift of revelation before it is an achievement of the church. The most patristic way to proceed toward a well-ordered doctrine of the Trinity is, after all, to study Scripture. -ABOUT THE SERIES- New Studies in Dogmatics seeks to retrieve the riches of Christian doctrine for the sake of contemporary theological renewal. Following in the tradition of G. C. Berkouwer's Studies in Dogmatics, this series provides thoughtful, concise, and readable treatments of major theological topics, expressing the biblical, creedal, and confessional shape of Christian doctrine for a contemporary evangelical audience. The editors and contributors share a common conviction that the way forward in constructive systematic theology lies in building upon the foundations laid in the church's historic understanding of the Word of God as professed in its creeds, councils, and confessions, and by its most trusted teachers.

Download or read book The Doctrine of Revelation written by Gabriel J. Fackre and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 1997 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book ventures a new interpretation of revelation. The author discusses the major themes in the narrative of revelation, engaging critically with four of the century's giants in theology: Karl Barth, Paul Tillich, Karl Rahner and Carl Henry. These represent the four major phases in the narrative of revelation and Fackre addresses these alternative views in twentieth-century theology through in-depth inquiry and critical analysis. The Doctrine of Revelation challenges reductionist views and strives for an ecumenical understanding that appropriates the insights from a variety of schools of thought.
Download or read book Narrative Research in Ministry written by Carl E. Savage and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are in a real sense, our stories. Who we are, what we think, and how we act are all shaped by the many large and small stories that make up the discourse embedded in our multi-sensory social experience. It is this postmodern understanding of identity and reality that has prompted the authors to fashion a new way of thinking about doing research in faith communities today, particularly through a Doctor of Ministry program. It is our belief that, in order for faith communities to define themselves and to know what to do in ministry, they must first understand the multiple stories which intersect with a given ministry situation in their specific context.
Download or read book The Triune Identity written by Robert W. Jenson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2002-05-10 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a bold venture in theology, combining a presentation, explanation, analysis, and reinterpretation of trinitarian language. Rejecting the assumption that traditional trinitarian discourse is useless in an age of cults and sects, Jenson points to a profound and provocative renewal of trinitarian piety and reflection understood as a remedy for spiritual desolation and powerlessness. Proceeding on the premise that any radical analysis of the formula ÒFather, Son, and Holy SpiritÓ must work from biblical statements, Jenson investigates the significance of two biblical identifications of God: ÒGod is whoever freed us from EgyptÓ and ÒGod is whoever raised Jesus from the deadÓ. In opposition to the notion that God is to be understood simply as timeless being, Jenson shows how the memory of God's acts and the presence of God in Christ leads to a hope for the future based on the promise of the spirit.

Download or read book Exploring Reality written by J. C. Polkinghorne and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Involved for over thirty years in the politics of Iraq, Ali A. Allawi was a long-time opposition leader against the Baathist regime. In the post-Saddam years, he has held important government positions and participated in crucial national decisions and events. In this book, the former Minister of Defence and Finance draws on his unique personal experience, extensive relationships with members of the main political groups and parties in Iraq, and deep understanding of the history and society of his country to answer the baffling questions that persist about its current crises. What really led the United States to invade Iraq, and why have events failed to unfold as planned? The Occupation of Iraq examines what the U.S. did and didn't know at the time of the invasion, the reasons for the confused and contradictory policies that were enacted, and the emergence of the Iraqi political class during the difficult transition process. The book tracks the growth of the insurgency and illuminates the complex relationships among Sunnis, Shia, and Kurds. Bringing the discussion forward to the reconfiguration of political forces in 2006, Allawi provides in these pages the clearest view to date of the modern history of Iraq and the invasion that changed its course in unpredicted ways.

Download or read book Exodus and Resurrection written by Andrew W. Nicol and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exodus and Resurrection establishes the important place God’s identity as the “God of Israel” has in the systematic theology of Robert W. Jenson. The work demonstrates that the identification of the God of Israel as the agent of Jesus’ resurrection functions as a foundational premise in Jenson’s Trinitarian theology. Andrew W. Nicol argues that a central characteristic of Jenson’s work is not merely his recognition that the same God who rescued Israel from Egypt raised Jesus from the dead, or the related yet distinct step of renovating his theology in a nonsupersessionist fashion, but also his attempt to conceive of the full implications for doing so in Christian theology, in the church’s self-understanding, and in the church’s relation to Israel and continuing Judaism. In this, Exodus and Resurrection provides a clear and critically appreciative account of Robert W. Jenson’s work and offers a new vital architectonic map of Jenson’s systematic vision.
