Book Synopsis 20th-Century Theology by : Stanley J. Grenz
Download or read book 20th-Century Theology written by Stanley J. Grenz and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2010-01-26 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recipient of a Christianity Today 1993 Critics' Choice Award Now in paperback! Stanley Grenz and Roger Olson offer in this text a sympathetic introduction to twentieth-century theology and a critical survey of its significant thinkers and movements. Of particular interest is their attempt to show how twentieth-century theology has moved back and forth between two basic concepts: God's immanence and God's transcendence. Their survey profiles such towering figures in contemporary theology as Karl Barth, Rudolf Bultmann, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Reinhold Niebuhr, Paul Tillich, Jurgen Moltmann and Wolfhart Pannenberg. It critiques significant movements like neo-orthodoxy, process theology, liberation theology and theology of hope. And it assesses recent developments in feminist theology, black theology, new Catholic theology, narrative theology and evangelical theology. An indispensable handbook for anybody interested in today's theological landscape.

Book Synopsis A History of Catholic Moral Theology in the Twentieth Century by : James F. Keenan
Download or read book A History of Catholic Moral Theology in the Twentieth Century written by James F. Keenan and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-01-17 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an historical survey of 20th Century Roman Catholic Theological Ethics (also known as moral theology). The thesis is that only through historical investigation can we really understand how the most conservative and negative field in Catholic theology at the beginning of the 20th could become by the end of the 20th century the most innovative one. The 20th century begins with moral manuals being translated into the vernacular. After examining the manuals of Thomas Slater and Henry Davis, Keenan then turns to three works and a crowning synthesis of innovation all developed before, during and soon after the Second World War. The first by Odon Lottin asks whether moral theology is adequately historical; Fritz Tillmann asks whether it's adequately biblical; and Gerard Gilleman, whether it's adequately spiritual. Bernard Haering integrates these contributions into his Law of Christ. Of course, people like Gerald Kelly and John Ford in the US are like a few moralists elsewhere, classical gate keepers, censoring innovation. But with Humanae vitae, and successive encyclicals, bishops and popes reject the direction of moral theologians. At the same time, moral theologians, like Josef Fuchs, ask whether the locus of moral truth is in continuous, universal teachings of the magisterium or in the moral judgment of the informed conscience. In their move toward a deeper appreciation of their field as forming consciences, they turn more deeply to local experience where they continue their work of innovation. Each continent subsequently gives rise to their own respondents: In Europe they speak of autonomy and personalism; in Latin America, liberation theology; in North America, Feminism and Black Catholic theology; and, in Asia and Africa a deep post-colonial interculturatism. At the end I assert that in its nature, theological ethics is historical and innovative, seeking moral truth for the conscience by looking to speak crossculturally.

Book Synopsis Dispensational Theology in America During the Twentieth Century by : Dale Sumner DeWitt
Download or read book Dispensational Theology in America During the Twentieth Century written by Dale Sumner DeWitt and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The intended audience is serious minded people who want to pursue the history and details of dispensational theology. There is a chapter or two which will be especially challenging for some readers, but overall anyone accustomed to college level reading will find this book eminently beneficial. DeWitt begins by explaining dispensationalism in the setting of other protestant theologies. This is an aspect of dispensationalism that seems to have been neglected but needs to be clearly understood. The following chapter seeks to track the historical background of dispensationalism. Succeeding chapters identify the essential ideas of dispensationalism and provide extensive discussion of their implications. The book ends with a chapter entitled, 'Dispensational Theology and Worldview Thought.' This is a warm but penetrating consideration of dispensationalism's power and ability to bring godly transformation to both people and the culture around them."--Timothy F. Conklin.

Book Synopsis Twentieth-Century Theologians by : Philip Kennedy
Download or read book Twentieth-Century Theologians written by Philip Kennedy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-30 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One needs to be a lunatic to become a Christian, the 19th century Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard once observed. Had he lived in the 20th century he might have discerned even more of an obstacle to faith. For during the last century the human condition changed more rapidly than during any previous era, taking that condition far away from the historical circumstances in which Christianity was born. In his new book, Philip Kennedy explores the ways Christian theologians of the 20th century tried to live a productive religious life in a world overtaken by massive upheaval and innovation.The book is distinctive in a number of respects. First, it differs from other surveys of theology by adopting a biographical method, examining the lives of its subjects in historical context. Second, it is more progressive than its competitors, covering many theologians other than white male professors - especially women - who have worked outside the academy or on the margins of the churches. Third, it is international, focusing on theologians in all the continents of the world rather than just Europe or North America. Fourth, it makes no assumptions that its readers are religious or that theology is uniquely credible. There is a need for a sensitive new textbook reassessing the subject in the light of modern concerns and scepticism about religion. This book meets that need.
Book Synopsis The Story of Christian Theology by : Roger E. Olson
Download or read book The Story of Christian Theology written by Roger E. Olson and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-08-20 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity Today Book of the Year Award ECPA Gold Medallion Award History is made up of stories--narratives that recount the events, movements, ideas and lives that have shaped religions and nations. Theologian Roger Olson believes that the history of Christian theology should be told as such a story, one replete with thick plots, exciting twists, interesting people and fascinating ideas. In this panoramic work of historical theology Olson vividly recounts the deeds and words of the cultists and apostolic fathers of the second century, the clash between the theological schools of Alexandria and Antioch, the epochal division between East and West, the revolutionary advent of the Reformation and much more, right on up to the dazzling, sometimes dismaying fallout that has continued to shake Christians through the twentieth century. Through it all Olson detects and traces a common thread: a concern for salvation--God's redemptive activity in forgiving and transforming sinful human beings. Evenhanded, refreshingly readable, impressive in its breadth and depth, The Story of Christian Theology is poised to become a standard historical theology text.

Book Synopsis The Journey of Modern Theology by : Roger E. Olson
Download or read book The Journey of Modern Theology written by Roger E. Olson and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernity has been an age of revolutions—political, scientific, industrial and philosophical. Consequently, it has also been an age of revolutions in theology, as Christians attempt to make sense of their faith in light of the cultural upheavals around them, what Walter Lippman once called the "acids of modernity." Modern theology is the result of this struggle to think responsibly about God within the modern cultural ethos. In this major revision and expansion of the classic 20th Century Theology (1992), co-authored with Stanley J. Grenz, Roger Olson widens the scope of the story to include a fuller account of modernity, more material on the nineteenth century and an engagement with postmodernity. More importantly, the entire narrative is now recast in terms of how theologians have accommodated or rejected the Enlightenment and scientific revolutions. With that question in mind, Olson guides us on the epic journey of modern theology, from the liberal "reconstruction" of theology that originated with Friedrich Schleiermacher to the postliberal and postmodern "deconstruction" of modern theology that continues today. The Journey of Modern Theology is vintage Olson: eminently readable, panoramic in scope, at once original and balanced, and marked throughout by a passionate concern for the church's faithfulness to the gospel of Jesus Christ. This will no doubt become another standard text in historical theology.
