Book Synopsis Resilient Religion, Resilience and Heartbreaking Adversity by : LIT Verlag
Download or read book Resilient Religion, Resilience and Heartbreaking Adversity written by LIT Verlag and published by LIT Verlag. This book was released on 2023-01-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A resilience theory on religion needs to answer four questions. What defines the kind of adversity which is addressed in religion? What is characteristic for processes of resilience in religion? What defines resilient religion as outcome? Which logic of inference (epistemology) based on our beliefs and experiences about reality binds these three elements together? The book starts with mapping the field of resilience theory on religion by addressing all four questions. The need for thinking about Christian resilience and the God symbol is addressed, and the need to be "explicitly contextual" with regard to resilience in South Africa. Next three types practices of religious acting are related to experiences of resilience, namely preaching, narrating and discerning. In the last chapters the focus is on the way stories help to express feelings of experiences of crises, tragedy, and trauma. But also how stories can help heal the broken heart. Prof Chris A.M. Hermans is extraordinary professor in practical theology and missiology at the University of the Free State (South Africa). He is emeritus professor in pastoral theology at Radboud University (the Netherlands).and emeritus professor in empirical study of religion as Radboud University (the Netherlands). Prof. Kobus (W.J.) Schoeman is professor of practical theology at the University of the Free State (South Africa).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While building on a comprehensive reading of available archival sources in the Menzingen Religious Institute, this work provides a greater understanding of the possibilities and the difficulties of a return textit{ad fontes} in the Church and in religious life. It discloses that a struggle for a founding inspiration is a struggle for the memory. The theoretical framework which has been constructed from scriptural sources in this study, is likely to be of use in a theological interpretation of any Christian founding event. Sr. M. Finbarr Coffey is a teacher in Philosophy and Ethics at the Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School, London. She is also the author of: The Question of Relativism: an Essay in Epistemology. New Millennium, London, 2016.
Book Synopsis Essays on Philosophy and Religious Studies by : LIT Verlag
Download or read book Essays on Philosophy and Religious Studies written by LIT Verlag and published by LIT Verlag. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analecta Bruxellensia has been since 1996 the annual review of the Protestant Faculties of Theology and Religious Studies (FUTP (French) and FPTR (Dutch)) in Brussels. Analecta 21 is a varied number. Three themes are developed covering exegetical, historical, sociological, theological and philosophical fields. The first explores hermeneutics related to the understanding and assimilation of the biblical text; the second addresses the weight of ideology in the construction of narratives invoked in the representation of the Other; the third pursues this theme of encounter and otherness in various historical perspectives. From a queer exegesis of the narrative of Acts 8 to the question of the extent of Christ's salvation in the hypothesis of inhabited worlds in science fiction literature, the eclecticism of these academic contributions, as well as their relevance to contemporary debates, promise the reader multiple changes of scenery and genuinely new thinking. This issue also includes a previously unpublished contribution by Paul Ricur, a restitution of a three-speaker conference given in January 2000 on the theme of justice between ethics and law.

Other contributions come from the fields of New Testament, Old Testament, Historical Theology, and Systematic Theology. Prof. Dr. Dr. Jacobus Kok is Professor and Department Chair of New Testament Studies and Co-Director of RCEC at the Evangelische Theologische Faculteit, Leuven in Belgium, as well as Professor Extraordinarius and NRF B3 rated scholar in the Department of New Testament and Related Literature, Faculty of Theology and Religion, University of Pretoria in South Africa.

Book excerpt: In our times hope is called into question. The disintegration of economic systems, of states and societies, families, friendships, distrust in political structures, forces us to ask if hope has disappeared from the experience of today's men and women. In August 2019, up to 240 participants met at the international theological congress in Bratislava, Slovakia. The main lectures, congress sections and workshops aimed to provide a space for thinking about the central theme of hope in relation to philosophy, politics, pedagogy, social work, charity, interreligious dialogue and ecumenism.

Book Synopsis Representation and Ultimacy by : Jan-Olav Henriksen
Download or read book Representation and Ultimacy written by Jan-Olav Henriksen and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan-Olav Henriksen investigates the close relationship between God and human beings via an understanding of religion as clusters of practices that relate humans to ultimacy by different types of representation. Christian religion articulates its belief in God as creator (manifest in the power to be) and redeemer (represented in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ). Christ thus is the primary representation of God as the ultimate reality of love. He is also the true image of God, and the model for how humans are also called to represent God in love. The human features of desire and vulnerability, as these express elements that shape, form, and articulate challenges for human life, present humans with the need for orienting themselves, and for different types of transformation. Christian religion articulates a specific mode of how to cope with these challenges presented by desire and vulnerability: by living in love. Against this backdrop, Henriksen argues that neither how one understands religion, God, nor how to live a life that relates to ultimacy, can be tasks fulfilled as long as history goes on.
Book Synopsis Philosophy's Duty Towards Social Suffering by : José A. Zamora
Download or read book Philosophy's Duty Towards Social Suffering written by José A. Zamora and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social suffering commands increasing public attention in the wake of several historical processes that have changed the ways victims are perceived. In making suffering eloquent by rendering it in conceptual form, philosophy runs the risk of muting suffering, thereby neutralizing its ability to mobilize responses. In the experience of suffering philosophy finds a limit it must recognize as its own. Yet only by fulfilling its duty towards suffering - only by having the abolition of suffering as its ultimate goal - can philosophical thinking withstand a tacit complicity with injustice.
Book Synopsis Religiöse Bildung in Europa by : Patrik Dzambo
Download or read book Religiöse Bildung in Europa written by Patrik Dzambo and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2019-04 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religionspädagogik in Europa, geht das? Als Dokumentation eines internationalen Forschungsseminars im September 2018 in Split angelegt, widmet sich dieser Band dem komplexen Feld einer komparativen Religionspädagogik. Der Reiz besteht darin, diese Frage im Dialog zwischen einer kroatischen und deutschen Religionspädagogik zu erörtern. Nach einer kurzen Skizzierung des jeweiligen Profils einer Religionspädagogik in Kroatien sowie in Deutschland, reflektieren Nachwuchswissenschaftlerinnen und -wissenschaftler beider Länder in diesem Horizont und in einem breiten Zugriff religiöses Lernen unter spätmodernen Bedingungen. Geleitet durch die jeweiligen landesspezifischen Herausforderungen, zeigt sich vor allem in den Querverbindungen der einzelnen Beiträge die Brisanz einer komparativen Religionspädagogik in europäischer Perspektive, deren Potential als Weg einer kritisch-reflexiven Begegnung noch lange nicht ausgeschöpft ist.
Book Synopsis Space and Place as a Topic for Public Theologies by : LIT Verlag
Download or read book Space and Place as a Topic for Public Theologies written by LIT Verlag and published by LIT Verlag. This book was released on 2022-08-09 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public theologies reflect on the contextuality of the Christian religion. Much of this contextuality is dependent on place: place as the culture and the society in which religions are situated, place as the position from where a theologian speaks, place as the biographical contingencies that shape people's lives. Moreover, public theologies ask for the contribution of Christian ethics to society, thereby shaping the social, cultural, and religious space to which they belong. The contributions in this volume analyse the categories of space and place in order to deepen the understanding of contextuality, thereby taking up some of the challenges presented by the so-called "spatial turn". Dr Thomas Wabel is Professor of Protestant Theology (Systematic Theology) at the University of Bamberg. Dr Katharina Eberlein-Braun is Assistant Professor of Protestant Theology (Systematic Theology) at the University of Bamberg. Torben Stamer is vicar of the Protestant Church of Northern Germany in Ludwigslust.

Book Synopsis Main Challenges for Christian Theology Today by : LIT Verlag
Download or read book Main Challenges for Christian Theology Today written by LIT Verlag and published by LIT Verlag. This book was released on 2020-01-10 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, on the basis of three consultations which took place in Seoul and Geneva (2016, 2017, 2018), theologians from Yonsei University's College of Theology in Seoul, South Korea, and from the Theological Faculty at the University of Geneva reflect together on three of the main challenges facing Christian theology today. First, questions related to religious pluralism and multiple religious belonging are addressed. Second, the `promise' of an enhanced human being through technology and other means is discussed. Third, the reality of the threat humanity represents to our ecosystem is considered. Each of these themes is examined from a Korean as well as from a Western European perspective, for Christian theology, in our day, can no longer afford to remain limited to its own geographical context. Christophe Chalamet is Professor of Systematic Theology at the University of Geneva (Switzerland). Hyun-Shik Jun is Professor of Systematic Theology at Yonsei University's College of Theology in Seoul, Korea.
Book Synopsis Exploring Kenosis Spirituality: The Implications for the CMI's Spiritual Formation by : Pratheesh Michael Pulickal
Download or read book Exploring Kenosis Spirituality: The Implications for the CMI's Spiritual Formation written by Pratheesh Michael Pulickal and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation is a study of kenosis spirituality aimed at determining how the spiritual formation of the Carmelites of Mary Immaculate (CMI) can be effectively infused with a more profound and genuine understanding of kenosis spirituality. Employing a communication-oriented method involving three interconnected and progressive steps, namely, an analysis of syntax, semantics and pragmatics, and concentrating on the role of the text-immanent reader, this study conducts an in-depth textual analysis of five key texts. These have been chosen from the Bible, the Eastern and the Western monastic traditions, the early writings of the CMI, and the Indian Christian Ashram to ascertain a deeper understanding of kenosis spirituality. The study subsequently considers how to introduce insights regarding kenosis into the CMI's spiritual formation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions of eternal life and a revolution of the human condition have been a continuing theme in many religions, notably in the Abrahamic faiths. In one way or another, "deathless hopes" continue to play a prominent role in today's public discourses. To understand the current significance of the issue, a thorough grasp of historical dynamics is required. This volume gives a representative overview of prominent traditions in the Hebrew Bible, Jewish Studies, contemporary ethics, theology, and anthropology, but also evaluates common questions afresh, suggesting new perspectives.
