The Incarnation and the Church's Witness
Author: Darrell L. Guder
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1597524018
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 79
Book Description
For several years, argues Guder, contemporary Christian churches have often thought of their mission efforts as simply one more program of the church. In addition, outsiders have rightly criticized Christian mission efforts as exercises in cultural imperialism. In this provocative book, Guder argues that the incarnation of God in Jesus provides the foundational model for the practice of Christian missions in the world today. The incarnation is the culmination of God's activity and presence in the world, says Guder, for in this event God initiates the healing of a broken world. Using literary, historical, and social approaches to scripture, Guder claims the contemporary church should return to an Òincarnational missionÓ in which the practice of Christian witness is Òshaped by the life, ministry, suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus.Ó

The Preparation of the Incarnation
Author: Coleridge Henry James
Publisher: Legare Street Press
ISBN: 9781019837139
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This theological work explores the idea of 'preparation' as a key element in the Christian understanding of the Incarnation. Coleridge argues that God's plan for the salvation of humanity was set in motion long before the birth of Christ, and that the prophesies and foreshadowings of the Old Testament were a crucial part of this plan. This book is an insightful and thought-provoking contribution to the study of Christian theology and the history of doctrine. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations. Within the United States, you may freely copy and distribute this work, as no entity (individual or corporate) has a copyright on the body of the work.

Contemplating Christ
Author: Vincent Pizzuto
Publisher: Liturgical Press
ISBN: 0814647294
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
The incarnation has made mystics of us all. What if we read the gospels as if that were true? In his book Contemplating Christ,Vincent Pizzuto offers an exploration of the interior life for modern contemplatives that is as beautiful as it is compelling. With an emphasis on the gospels and Christian mystical tradition, his book explores ancient themes in new and surprising ways. Drawing on his rich experience as an academic and priest, Pizzuto gradually unfolds the Christian mystery of deification to which the whole of biblical revelation and the Christian contemplative life are ordered: through the incarnation, we have all been made “other Christs” in the world.
