Book Synopsis Crossing Frontiers by : Helmut Lemke
Download or read book Crossing Frontiers written by Helmut Lemke and published by Author House. This book was released on 2009-05-13 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crossing Frontiers is an autobiography. It starts with a short historical background of the author’s home country, Germany, as it refers to his story. Growing up during the depression and under Hitler’s National Socialists, he saw the Third Reich rise and fall. He relates interesting and humorous events from his school time, his training in the Hitler youth, labor force and military. In riveting details, he describes his war experiences, his return to his home in search of his mother. He points out the dangers he encountered living under Russian and Polish rule and later being expelled. He describes the situation in Germany after the war, illustrating it from his experience in refugee camps in East Germany, and his escape to West Germany. He compares university life in Germany, where he studied for his degree in architecture and the USA where he studied on a scholarship for a year. He narrates his adventures, hitchhiking through the United States, masterfully. His story ends with his decision to immigrate to Canada.
Book Synopsis A Missiology of the Road by : J Kevin Livingston
Download or read book A Missiology of the Road written by J Kevin Livingston and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Bosch (1929-1992) was one of the foremost mission theologians of the twentieth century; a prolific scholar, committed church leader and active participant in the global conciliar and evangelical mission movements. His distinctive role in the South African church's struggle against apartheid is less well known, however. After reviewing Bosch's background and exploring key themes in his understanding of mission and evangelism, Livingston explores Bosch's legacy from the perspective of the missionary nature of the church. The church is God's kingdom community, acting as a witness to and instrument of the coming reign of God. The church is God's alternative community, simultaneously set apart from the world but also existing for the sake of the world, exemplifying the radical implications of Christ's new community. It is also God's reconciled and reconciling community, serving as a sign and embodiment of God's love in Christ. For those acquainted with Bosch only as the author of his magisterial Transforming Mission, A Missiology of the Road shows how Bosch integrated his theology and practice in a faithful, contextually relevant way within South Africa and the global church.

Book Synopsis Affirming and Living with Differences by :
Download or read book Affirming and Living with Differences written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-01-13 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The multi-cultural society is under enormous pressure. Paradoxically, the globalization plans of modernity have resulted in a more fragmented world and ensuing violence. Instead of becoming uniform, individual character and differences have become more strongly emphasized. How can people live together and at the same time preserve their differences? How can variety be valued in a theological manner? These questions form the theme of this collection that consists of three sections. The South African reflections (Simon, Louw and Koopman) that consider living in the variety of a rainbow nation are followed by European experiences of Moluccan Christians in the Netherlands (Pattikayhatu), Western Muslims (van Bommel) and the Belgian modus vivendi (Van der Borght). The collection is completed by the theological reflections about the concept communio sanctorum (Le Bruyns), the Enlightenment's ideal of equality (van de Beek) and the unity of the church (Theron).
Book Synopsis Let the Nations be Glad by : John Piper
Download or read book Let the Nations be Glad written by John Piper and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Mission is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exist because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate.' John Piper's contemporary classic draws on key biblical texts to demonstrate that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching 'all nations'. Let the Nations Be Glad! is a trusted resource for missionaries, pastors, church leaders, youth workers, seminary students, and all who want to connect their labours to God's global purposes. This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'.

Book Synopsis Mission is Crossing Frontiers by : Roswith I. H. Gerloff
Download or read book Mission is Crossing Frontiers written by Roswith I. H. Gerloff and published by . This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book invites us into 'frontier-crossing' in three parts: The first is dedicated to the memory of a theological educator who influenced students and pastors in contextualising theology, liberating them from western-only concepts, building bridges over racial and cultural divides, and encouraging learner-centred dialogical education. The second shares with us some of his own writings, especially on pastoral training and intercultural learning in Birmingham (UK) and Umlazi, Durban, rendering culture a starting point for church and mission. The third, the 'Legacy', raises awareness of various contemporary issues such as African Christianity as a new religion, the significance of new religious movements, especially African Indigenous Churches, the impact of the African Diaspora on Europe, liberating theological education, listening to women's voices, diasporic identity as hybridity, and interreligious dialogue. It may serve as a textbook for transcending barriers, not only in content but also in critical methodology.

Book Synopsis Missions, Nationalism and the End of Empire by : Stanley
Download or read book Missions, Nationalism and the End of Empire written by Stanley and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian missions have often been seen as the religious arm of Western imperialism. What is rarely appreciated is the role they played in bringing about an end to the Western colonial empires after the Second World War. "Missions, Nationalism, and the End of Empire" explores this neglected subject. Respected authorities on the history of missions explore new territory in these chapters, examining from diverse angles the linkages between Christianity, nationalism, and the dissolution of the colonial empires in Asia and Africa. This work not only sheds light on the relation of religion and politics but also uncovers the sometimes paradoxical implications of the church's call to bring the gospel to all the world.
