Essays in Ecumenical Theology I
Author: Ivana Noble
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004381090
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
In the first volume of Essays in Ecumenical Theology Ivana Noble depicts differences between what she calls a sectarian outlook and one which engages in the search for common roots, dialogical relationships and shared mission in a world that has largely become post-Christian, but often also post-secular. Drawing on both Western and Orthodox scholarship, and expressing her own positions, Noble sketches what ecumenical theology is, how it is linked to spirituality, the methods it uses, how it developed during the twentieth century, and the challenges it faces. Specific studies deal with controversial interpretations of Jan Hus, Catholic Modernism, the problematic heritage of the totalitarian regimes, and responses to the current humanitarian crisis.

Ecumenism Means You, Too
Author: Steven R. Harmon
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1621892778
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 73
Book Description
By all accounts, the modern ecumenical movement is not moving much these days. Despite dramatic breakthroughs in the past few decades, the quest for a visibly united church--in which there is common confession of the apostolic faith, full Eucharistic communion, and mutual recognition of members and ministers--now meets with indifference by many, impatience by some, and outright hostility by others. In part, this is because the movement has not given enough attention to grassroots ecumenical engagement. This book is written to convince ordinary Christians, especially young Christian adults, that they too have a stake in the future of the ecumenical movement as its most indispensable participants. Ecumenism Means You, Too draws on the music of Irish rock band U2 to cast artistic light on various aspects of the quest for Christian unity. Whether one is a U2 fan or not, and whether one thinks the ecumenical movement is a good thing or a bad thing for the church, everyone who reads this book will learn something about the Christian theological framework apart from which neither the modern ecumenical movement nor the meaning of U2's music can be understood. The book includes an annotated bibliography of resources for ecumenical engagement and a glossary of key ecumenical terms for readers who want to learn more about the Christian practice of seeking the unity of the church.

With Courage and Compassion
Author: Aruna Gnanadason
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 1506430252
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
With Courage and Compassion celebrates the contributions of women to nations, societies, churches, and the ecumenical movement. Through creative forms of resistance and daring theological exploration, women have enriched and advanced theological discourse and called for transformations in within human relationships with one another and with the earth. The World Council of Churches (WCC) has, since its inception in 1948, responded to the call of women for recognition of their leadership and theological gifts with efforts at affirmation and inclusion. However, all is not well. Structures and processes that permit many forms of exclusion and even violence against women in societies in the church and the ecumenical movement persist. This book analyses what lies at the heart of the struggle women go through and why the vulnerability of women continues to be exploited. It calls for a new theological vision and political imagination to transform unjust attitudes and systems that still exist, particularly in the ecumenical movement.

Royal Priesthood
Author: John Howard Yoder
Publisher: MennoMedia, Inc.
ISBN: 0836197747
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
Readers will discover that it is not possible to disengage John Howard Yoder’s practice of ecumenical dialogue from his vision of the church. Yoder’s approach to ecumenical dialogue correlates with his conception of the faithfulness of the church. His vision of the church poses challenges for Christians of all communions because he calls both for disciplined dialogue and for faithful servanthood that renders the confession of Jesus Christ’s lordship meaningful. This collection of 17 essays on themes ecclesiological and ecumenical is intended to demonstrate the substantial unity of Yoder’s work over the past four decades. Many of these essays are often cited by researchers but have been till now unobtainable. Three of these texts have never been published before. Editor Michael Cartwright has contributed a substantial introduction on the “Yoderian” project, and a select bibliography prepared by Mark Nation catalogs Yoder’s writings—published and unpublished—on ecclesiology and ecumenism.

At Home with God and in the World
Author: Philip Potter
Publisher: World Council of Churches
ISBN: 9782825415658
Category : Christian life
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
As a pivotal figure in the ecumenical movement and in world Christianity during the last 50 years, Philip Potter brought charismatic personality, moral energy, and prophetic insight to his leadership of the World Council of Churches at a time of religious and socio-political turmoil. As an invaluable, historical, and theological resource, this anthology captures those qualities in the most complete collection of Potter's writings to date, highlighting his landmark speeches, preaching, and Bible studies. Ranging across Potter's core biblical and theological themes to his bracing cultural analysis and strong articulation of the imperatives of social justice, the 24 works collected here are religiously and prophetically rich. They also shed light on: the rapid development of the ecumenical movement in the post-War period; the newly globalized and post-colonial reality facing the churches from the 1960s onward; and the steep challenges posed to the churches - then and now - by race consciousness, the legacy of colonialism, the gender revolution, the nuclear threat, and geopolitical change. Along with extensive biographical materials and a photo gallery, the book includes a helpful bibliography of primary and secondary resources.

Transubstantiation
Author: Brett Salkeld
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1493418246
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
This thoroughgoing study examines the doctrine of transubstantiation from historical, theological, and ecumenical vantage points. Brett Salkeld explores eucharistic presence in the theologies of Aquinas, Luther, and Calvin, showing that Christians might have more in common on this topic than they have typically been led to believe. As Salkeld corrects false understandings of the theology of transubstantiation, he shows that Luther and Calvin were much closer to the medieval Catholic tradition than is often acknowledged. The book includes a foreword by Michael Root.
