"Like tenacious alfalfa roots, which reach deep into the ground and transfer essential nutrients to the soil's surface, Ragan Sutterfield digs deep into the subsoil of agrarian thought, Christian faith, and his own experience as a farmer, and brings up life-giving nourishment for all to share. In this world of smartphones and dumbed-down culture, Cultivating Reality points us toward those habits of mind that deepen our relationship with the world, with God, and with each other. Here's to 'the pr

Tomando como punto de partida la «mundanidad espiritual», el artículo analiza la relación entre el misterio del mal y la figura del Anticristo con la historia del cristianismo y la modernidad, tratando de entender la afirmación de que la corrupción de lo mejor engendra lo peor. Concluyo con el carácter inevitable de que el trigo y la cizaña crecerán juntos en el régimen de la encarnación del Verbo y con la vigilancia y el testimonio de las fuentes cristianas ante los efectos sombríos, eclesiales

The Book of Daniel is the place where prophecy and theology meet in a teenage boy named Daniel in captivity to a foreign king. Along with Daniel's friends, the reader comes face-to-face with the realities in his own life:

-How a believer must live in times of apostasy;
-How a believer may follow the Lord in the most secular of conditions;
-How a follower of Christ can trust Christ even when it seems He is not in control;
-How a disciple of Jesus can meet the demands of disci

"Spanring rescues Koster's (Ana)Baptist path of resistance from obscurity, and by contrast throws new light on Bonhoeffer's path. His comparative study reveals two men who drew skillfully on their respective traditions while fighting just as courageously against distortions of them. Arguing that their lives serve as boundary markers on opposite sides of the path of discipleship, Spanring urges fellow travelers to remember they followed Jesus to the borders by clinging closely to Christ, the cent

Auf spielerische Weise verbindet Lorenz Marti Zeugnisse der Mystik mit ganz alltäglichen Erfahrungen und fragt nach der praktischen Bedeutung spiritueller Weisheiten. Er verteilt keine Rezepte und empfiehlt keine Übungen, präsentiert keine Theorien – er beobachtet, stellt Fragen, und nimmt seine Leser mit – mitten ins Herz des Alltäglichen. Spiritualität kann beim Schnüren der Schuhe beginnen, frühmorgens, wenn die Zeit knapp ist und der Stress groß, und plötzlich ein Schuhbändel reißt. Der Ort,

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Theologie - Biblische Theologie, Note: 2,0, Seminar Schloss Bogenhofen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der zu betrachtende Vers steht in Offenbarung 8,7.

Wollen wir das echte oder ein von heidnischen Einflüssen geprägtes, menschengemachtes Christsein? Der Allgemeinheit (ob Christen oder Nichtchristen) ist kaum bewusst, wie wenig von dem, was wir in den heutigen Kirchen und Gemeinden als wesentlich und selbstverständlich erachten, sich wirklich vom Neuen Testament ableiten lässt. Es ist an der Zeit, dass wir uns hier schonungslos der Wahrheit stellen. Punkt für Punkt nehmen uns die Autoren deshalb an die Hand und zeigen auf, wie die einfache, dyn

Die christliche Erlösungslehre auf dem Prüfstand

- Eine kritische Neudeutung, in der die Erlösung ein Versprechen und keine Drohung mehr ist

Gott, der Vater, opfert Jesus, seinen Sohn, damit sein Zorn gegen die Menschen besänftigt werde – was wie mittelalterliche Ideologie klingt, ist offizielle Theologie der Kirchen. Bei jeder Abendmahls- oder Eucharistiefeier wird des »Opfers« Jesu gedacht: »Gestorben für unsere Sünden«.

Einer solchen »Opfertheologie« stehen heute viele G

Written in a clear and logical style, the book showcases Newton's deep knowledge of theology and his unique perspective on the relationship between

“This book is a clear and powerful attempt to show how the truth claims of Christian theology can be advanced in the contemporary world. Trevor Hart deftly navigates between dogmatism on the one hand and relativism on the other, arguing that the role faith plays in theology does not reduce theology to a non-rational ‘personal choice,’ since faith commitments are an essential element in other forms of knowledge. In this second edition, Hart argues that the particularities of Christian thinking ha

God created all of us for relationship with God and each other. Yet most people have felt left out at some point. For those with visible or invisible disabilities, attitudes and systems of ableism can particularly lead to deep hurt and barriers to fully participating in God's kingdom work. We all miss out when any members of the body of Christ are not included.
In this nine-session LifeGuide® Bible study, Deborah Abbs guides you to explore the deep love and acceptance of our heavenly Fa

The God of peace is never glorified by human violence. Thomas Merton 'The God of Peace', John Dear's classic theology of nonviolence, broke new ground when it was first published as a breakthrough toward a new understanding of scripture, theology, social concerns and churches issues--from the perspective of Gospel nonviolence, in the tradition of Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Dorothy Day. This ground-breaking study begins not just with the culture of violence, but the nonviolenc

A FORMER MONK GUIDES YOU ON YOUR PERSONAL JOURNEY OF THE SPIRIT

Ein Buch, das dazu ermutigt, zur Ruhe zu kommen und den Zuspruch des Hirten für sich anzunehmen.
