Download or read book The Impact of the Market written by Jurgen von Hagen and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-07-29 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pluralism has become the defining characteristic of modern societies. Individuals with differing values clamor for equality. Organizations and groups assert particular interests. Social movements flourish and fade. Some see in this clash of principles and aims the potential for a more just human community, while others fear the erosion of enduring culture. Yet beneath this welter stand powerful and pervasive institutions, whose distinctive norms profoundly shape our moral commitments and character—notably the family, the market, the media, and systems of law, religion, politics, research, education, health care, and defense. Drawing on scholarship from five continents, many disciplines, and diverse religious perspectives, this series examines the impact of these various institutions on moral education, character, and values. As globalization carries the shifting dynamic between individuals and institutions into every part of the globe, the contributors hope that this conversation will help address the increasing challenges confronting our pluralist societies and our world. In the theoretical, empirical, and historical contributions to this volume, theologians, economists, and market practitioners discuss the many tensions between market economics, ethics, and the Christian religion, thus adding to the fruitful and much needed dialogue between economics and theology.

Download or read book Understanding the Christianity Evolution Relationship written by Michael Ruse and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between science and religion is a topic that runs rife with misconceptions, misunderstandings and debates. Are science and religion always in conflict? Is Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection atheistic? How does history shape current debates around science and religion? This book explores these questions in a neutral and balanced way, focusing on the Christianity-evolution relationship. It shows that two paradigms – the world as an organism and the world as a machine – have critically informed and guided the discussions. The author uses his deep understanding of the history and philosophy of science, particularly Darwinian evolutionary theory and its controversies through the past 150 years, to bring fresh ideas to the debate and to wider discussions such as environmental issues and hate. Understanding the Christianity-Evolution Relationship provides a lively and informative analysis and lays out multiple views so that readers can make their own judgements to increase their understanding.

Download or read book A Christian Directory Vol 1 4 written by Richard Baxter and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-25 with total page 2688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Baxter's 'A Christian Directory' (Vol. 1-4) is a comprehensive guide for Christian living that covers a wide range of topics including prayer, worship, virtues, and vices. Written in the 17th century, Baxter's work reflects the Puritan tradition of practical theology and combines spiritual insight with practical advice on how to live a godly life. The book's dense prose and detailed explanations make it a valuable resource for those seeking to deepen their spiritual practice and moral understanding. Baxter's emphasis on personal piety and ethical conduct resonates throughout the pages, reminding readers of the importance of faith in everyday life. Richard Baxter was a prominent English Puritan preacher and writer known for his works on theology and devotional literature. His pastoral experience and commitment to the Protestant Reformation influenced his writing, as seen in 'A Christian Directory.' Baxter's dedication to the spiritual well-being of his congregation led him to compile this extensive guide, drawing from his own experiences as a minister. I highly recommend 'A Christian Directory' to readers interested in exploring the intersection of faith and practical living. Baxter's timeless wisdom and profound insights continue to inspire and challenge Christians to grow in their relationship with God and cultivate a life of holiness.

Download or read book The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders written by Rimi Xhemajli and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders, Rimi Xhemajli shows how a small but passionate movement grew and shook the religious world through astonishing signs and wonders. Beginning in the late eighteenth century, early American Methodist preachers, known as circuit riders, were appointed to evangelize the American frontier by presenting an experiential gospel: one that featured extraordinary phenomena that originated from God’s Spirit. In employing this evangelistic strategy of the gospel message fueled by supernatural displays, Methodism rapidly expanded. Despite beginning with only ten official circuit riders in the early 1770s, by the early 1830s, circuit riders had multiplied and caused Methodism to become the largest American denomination of its day. In investigating the significance of the supernatural in the circuit rider ministry, Xhemajli provides a new historical perspective through his eye-opening demonstration of the correlation between the supernatural and the explosive membership growth of early American Methodism, which fueled the Second Great Awakening. In doing so, he also prompts the consideration of the relevance and reproduction of such acts in the American church today.

Book excerpt: "Kwon and Thompson's eloquent reasoning will help Christians broaden their understanding of the contemporary conversation over reparations."--Publishers Weekly "A thoughtful approach to a vital topic."--Library Journal Christians are awakening to the legacy of racism in America like never before. While public conversations regarding the realities of racial division and inequalities have surged in recent years, so has the public outcry to work toward the long-awaited healing of these wounds. But American Christianity, with its tendency to view the ministry of reconciliation as its sole response to racial injustice, and its isolation from those who labor most diligently to address these things, is underequipped to offer solutions. Because of this, the church needs a new perspective on its responsibility for the deep racial brokenness at the heart of American culture and on what it can do to repair that brokenness. This book makes a compelling historical and theological case for the church's obligation to provide reparations for the oppression of African Americans. Duke Kwon and Gregory Thompson articulate the church's responsibility for its promotion and preservation of white supremacy throughout history, investigate the Bible's call to repair our racial brokenness, and offer a vision for the work of reparation at the local level. They lead readers toward a moral imagination that views reparations as a long-overdue and necessary step in our collective journey toward healing and wholeness.
