Book Description
Christians are much the richer for this accomplishment of a long-cherished dream by an experienced missioner-social anthropologist. Gerald Arbuckle has provided a book for the contemporary pastoral care team that mediates basic insights on ministry via the social sciences. He also challenges church workers to rethink and reassess their work in light of the profound cultural changes taking place around them. 'Earthing the Gospel' introduces pastoral workers in the First World to methods of social analysis pioneered by missionaries worldwide. It includes case histories, personal stories, and the results of fieldwork of hundreds of people in both the First and Third Worlds. Applying the insights of social anthropology to the parishes on the home frontÓ Arbuckle offers the tools required to address issues of mission and inculturation in the First World. Above all, 'Earthing the Gospel' is practical. It presumes no special knowledge of anthropology as it zeroes in on topical issues - racism, fundamentalism, the modern family, youth and senior citizen subcultures - affecting parishes and communities today. Each chapter ends with questions for reflection and action. For pastoral teams and workers on every level, the insights gained from mission around the world can, applying the methods described here, be just as fruitful in our own back yards.
The Gospel Among the Nations: A Documentary History of Inculturation
Author: Hunt, Robert A
Publisher: Orbis Books
ISBN: 1608333906
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 725
Book Description
The Gospel Among the Nations brings together in a single volume the most important primary documents illustrating how Christians have dealt with the most fundamental issue of the churchs mission: how to translate the gospel in new cultural settings. The texts range from Pope Gregorys famous instructions to Augustine of Canterbury on his mission to England, to W. E. Hockings fateful ""Attitudes toward People of Other Faiths.""
Beginning with a masterful introduction to the theme, Robert Hunt assembles scores of texts that reveal the way that missionaries, church leaders, and local Christians have contributed to the extension of Christianity over two millennia, and thus made it truly a world religion. The Gospel Among the Nations is an essential resource for students, researchers and practitioners in world Christian history and mission studies.

Effective Inculturation and Ethnic Identity
Author: Maria de la Cruz Aymes
Publisher: Gregorian & Biblical Press
ISBN: 9788876525728
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The present volume is made up of five papers. The first, by sr. Maria de la Cruz Aymes, S. H., and by Rev. J. Buckley, S. J., is about the Catechesis of Hispanics in the United States. The second, by fr. Eugenio Maurer, S. J., deals with the mentality of the conquistadores, and with the inculturation project among the Tseltal Indians. The third, by fr. Charles Nyamiti, examines the catholic teaching on the Trinity in the light of the black African understanding of ancestor veneration. The fourth article, by Rev. William Biernatzky, S. J., develops how effective tools for the study of inculturation can best be developed from the empirical perspective of cultural anthropology. The fifth study, by Rev. George A. De Napoli, S. J., about the inculturation as communication, attempts to spell out in detail some of the complexities in trying to inculturate Christian meanings and values in the different societies.

Deep Inculturation: Indigenous Genius
Author: Antonio Sison
Publisher: Orbis Books
ISBN: 9781626985711
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Traditionally, inculturation has referred to a strategy employed by Western missionaries to evangelize non-Christian cultures. But what does this look like from the other side, from the perspective of indigenous cultures of the Global South and immigrant-heritage cultures in the interstices of dominant cultures? Going beyond inherited ways of understanding and doing inculturation, this anthology turns the hermeneutical prism in new, diverse angles to reveal the variegated facets of a "deep inculturation" born from the creative and often heroic faith of underrepresented communities, who have, in the power of their own Indigenous genius, upheld their cultural identity and historical agency, while seeking religious synthesis. Deep Inculturation features original essays by seven leading global theologians with a focus on inculturation in particular contexts: Africa, Mexico, Japan, Australia, and Indonesia.
