Book Synopsis Early Works on Theological Method 1 by : Bernard J. F. Lonergan
Download or read book Early Works on Theological Method 1 written by Bernard J. F. Lonergan and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 713 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volumes 22 and 23 in the Collected Works document many of Bernard Lonergan's lectures and seminars on theological method, and in so doing trace the evolution of his thought between the publication of Insight and the completion of Method in Theology. Volume 22 contains a record of his English lectures on method delivered at institutes in 1962 (Regis College, Toronto), in 1964 (Georgetown University), and in 1968 (Boston College), while volume 23 is devoted to his Latin courses on method offered at the Gregorian University between 1958 and 1962. This is the most `interactive' volume in the series published to date. Additional digital text and audio source materials are available online at www.bernardlonergan.com. The present volume, even when read on its own, sketches an outline of the development of Lonergan's ideas on such key notions as horizon, conversion, and meaning, as well as the movement from the division of theology into positive, dogmatic, and systematic (parts 1 and 2), to the division in terms of operational or functional specialization (part 3). Together these materials further our understanding of critical theological concepts and their emergence within an important and complex period in Lonergan's development.

Each is ready to engage in a passionate discussion centered on God, his works, and his ways. Regardless of which role you play at the same table, you're invited. You simply need to pull up a chair and join the conversation. But how? What do you say when you take your seat? Where do you start? What are the "rules" of the dialogue? A Practical Primer on Theological Method will help you answer these questions. This primer is not only a "how-to" manual for doing theology, but a handbook of etiquette for doctrinal discussions with other believers. This popular-level introductory text presents the proper manner, mode, and means of engaging fruitfully in theology.

Book Synopsis RetroChristianity by : Michael J. Svigel
Download or read book RetroChristianity written by Michael J. Svigel and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evangelicalism is in trouble. Surveying the modern evangelical landscape, professor Michael Svigel asks, "Why does evangelicalism appear to be spinning out of control, losing appeal to younger generations, dwindling in numbers, or selling out to pop culture to muster a crowd?" He seeks to answer this question by looking to the past—to a Retro Christianity. Calling for a return to evangelicalism's historical and theological roots, Svigel begins by addressing some of present-day evangelicalism's problems and explores what can be done to help churches regain a healthy perspective on doctrine. He then gives practical examples of what establishing a biblical, historical, and theologically sound foundation will mean for Christians as they think through aspects of church life and worship. As the numbers of those confused or disenchanted with evangelicalism continue to grow, Svigel's book meets a timely need and will benefit many readers with his balanced argument for preserving the evangelical faith.

Book Synopsis Theological Retrieval for Evangelicals by : Gavin Ortlund
Download or read book Theological Retrieval for Evangelicals written by Gavin Ortlund and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restless for rootedness, many Christians are abandoning Protestantism altogether. Many evangelicals today are aching for theological rootedness often found in other Christian traditions. Modern evangelicalism is not known for drawing from church history to inform views on the Christian life, which can lead to a "me and my Bible" approach to theology. But this book aims to show how Protestantism offers the theological depth so many desire without the need for abandoning a distinctly evangelical identity. By focusing on particular doctrines and neglected theologians, this book shows how evangelicals can draw from the past to meet the challenges of the present.
Book Synopsis Exploring Theological Paradoxes by : Cyril Orji
Download or read book Exploring Theological Paradoxes written by Cyril Orji and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-31 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the question of theological paradox, exploring what it means and its place in theological method from a Christian perspective. Just as paradoxes are unavoidable in logic and mathematics, paradoxes are inevitable in religious and theological discourses. The chapters in this volume examine a number of cases, including the ‘Red Heifer paradox’, the ‘liar paradox’, and the ‘paradox of omnipotence’, and attention is given to Christian doctrines such as the Trinity and the Incarnation. Arguing for a renewed understanding and appreciation of the role of paradox, this study will be of interest to scholars of theology and the philosophy of religion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, first published in 1979, contains Gordon Kaufman's initial attempt to articulate his conviction that theology is, and always has been, an activity of what he calls the "imaginative construction" of a comprehensive and coherent picture of humanity in the world under God. While Kaufman's 1993 work, In Face of Mystery, qualifies and deepens the programmatic proposals offered in An Essay on Theological Method, the earlier book nevertheless remains a sound and accessible statement on theological method by one of America's most distinguished theologians. The Third Edition includes an extensive new Preface by the author, and an appendix on "The Three Moments of Theological Construction."

Download or read book Canonical Theology written by Peckham and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the roles of canon and community in the understanding and articulation of Christian doctrine? Should the church be the doctrinal arbiter in the twenty-first century? In Canonical Theology John Peckham tackles this complex, ongoing discussion by shedding light on issues surrounding the biblical canon and the role of the community for theology and practice. Peckham examines the nature of the biblical canon, the proper relationship of Scripture and tradition, and the interpretation and application of Scripture for theology. He lays out a compelling canonical approach to systematic theology -- including an explanation of his method, a step-by-step account of how to practice it, and an example of what theology derived from this canonical approach looks like.
Book Synopsis Theological Method: A Guide for the Perplexed by : Paul L. Allen
Download or read book Theological Method: A Guide for the Perplexed written by Paul L. Allen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theological Method: A Guide for the Perplexed is a book that introduces the reader to the practice of doing theology. It provides a historical survey of key figures and concepts that bear on an understanding of difficult methodological issues in Christian theology. Beginning with a description of philosophical themes that affect the way theology is done today, it summarizes the various theological methods deployed by theologians and churches over two millennia of Christian thought. The book uncovers patterns in the theological task of relating biblical texts with beliefs and doctrines, according to historically conditioned theological and cultural priorities. The book's highlights include a discussion of Augustine's epoch-making De doctrina Christiana. Also receiving close attention is the relationship between philosophy and theology during the Middle Ages, the meaning of sola scriptura for the Protestant Reformers, the methods of key interpreters of doctrine in the nineteenth century and the theological priorities of the 'Radical Orthodoxy' movement.

Book Synopsis The History of Theological Education by : Dr. Justo L. Gonzalez
Download or read book The History of Theological Education written by Dr. Justo L. Gonzalez and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theological education has always been vital to the Church’s life and mission; yet today it is in crisis, lacking focus, direction, but also resources and even students. In the early Church, there is no doubt that to lead worship one had to be able to read and interpret the Bible. In order to lead, it was necessary to know at least something about the history of Israel and the work of God in the Gospels, and interpret that history, making it relevant to daily living. Quickly the Church developed schools for its teachers, whether lay or clergy. A catechetical system was organized through which candidates prepared for baptism were given a basic form of theological education. Hence to be a Christian meant persons knew what and why they believed. But over the years, theological education has come to mean education for clergy and church professionals. It has drifted, seeking new moorings.
