Download or read book Interfaith Dialogue written by Edmund Kee-Fook Chia and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses issues central to today’s Catholic Church, focusing on the relationship between various religions in different contexts and regions across the world. The diverse array of contributors present an inclusively interfaith enterprise, investigating a wide range of encounters and perspectives. The essays include approaches from the Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, and Bahá’í traditions, in a variety of geographic contexts. Contributors reflect on Muslims in the West, Christian-Buddhist social activism, and on Chinese, Indian, and Japanese religions. The volume also explores the experiences of communities that are often marginalized and overlooked such as the Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders of Australia and the Karen tribal peoples of Thailand. Contributors examine the works of the Focolare, Gülen, and Risshō Kōsei-kai movements, and integrate the vision of Raimon Panikkar and Ken Wilber. Chapters incorporate discussions of dialogue documents such as Nostra Aetate and Dabru Emet, and methodologies such as Receptive Ecumenism, Comparative Theology, and Scriptural Reasoning. Among other goals, the book seeks to offer glimpses into interfaith dialogues across the world and examine what Christians can learn from other religions and global contexts.

Book excerpt: Encountering other faiths is an examination of the imperative of interreligious dialogue within the world and within the United States: an introduction for both individuals and study-groups to this exciting and necessary enterprise in its several modalities. For religions within the growingly pluralistic world of the twenty-first century, this is indeed a kairos moment. It is critical for the future to come to know people of different backgrounds, become familiar with their worldviews, and enter into mutual relations with them as seekers of a just social order. This book supports the development of skills in the practice of interreligious discourse, and gives practical counsel on how to encourage interreligious dialogue in its nascent stages. Book jacket.

Download or read book Interreligious Studies written by Rachel Mikva and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-15 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of the field of interreligious studies is emerging as a response to critical issues within our religiously plural world. Religious conflicts, large and small, continue to plague our society, as the challenges of navigating religious difference emerge in daily encounters among people who would like to get along in the public square that they fashion together. These challenges unfold within families, congregations, college campuses, workplaces, communities, media, and cyberspace. This volume offers a comprehensive introduction to interreligious studies. Providing an overview of the history, terms, and characteristics of the field, Rachel Mikva explores the ethical, philosophical, and theological foundations for pluralism. She also presents guidelines and case studies that demonstrate how interreligious understanding and solidarity can be achieved. Designed for use in undergraduate and graduate courses, the volume also will be useful to medical doctors, social workers, police officers, corporate managers, and others whose work requires multi-cultural competence.

Download or read book Everyday Wisdom written by Hans Gustafson and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, interreligious and interfaith studies have flourished in religion and theology departments, emphasizing the value of religious literacy for professional, vocational, and civic leadership. Everyday Wisdom offers an accessible introduction with an emphasis on lived religion, interreligious studies, and interfaith engagement and leadership. Hans Gustafson first explores the study of religion and interreligious studies, including the complexity and dynamism of religious identity, the global religious landscape, lived-religion approaches to the study of religion, and (inter)religious literacy. He then examines the relationship between the academic field of interreligious studies and the civic project of interfaith engagement. Focusing on interreligious studies, he explores various responses to religious diversity, while welcoming the role of secular and pluralist forces in religiously diverse societies. Gustafson introduces the dominant theological modes of approach to other religious traditions and to interreligious theological encounter, and examines the vital experience of human relationship across religious difference for inter- and intra-personal and purpose development, changemaking, and leadership. By holistically tying together several of the ultimate aims and common learning objectives of interreligious-studies courses, Gustafson proposes a framework, based on practical wisdom, for interreligious studies and interfaith leadership. Everyday Wisdom aims to be a core text in undergraduate and graduate courses in the fast-emerging field of interreligious and interfaith studies, as well as for the wider context of the study of religion and leadership.

This book was released on 2015-08-25 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Religious and Theological Studies walks students through topical issues to be encountered in the study of the Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as these religions encounter other religions in the context of the wider ecumenism. The text is written from a Christian point of view and aims at helping students understand that to be Christian is to be ecumenical. African Traditional Religions (ATRs) has been included in this survey to provide background for the religious traditions and cultures of peoples of Africa as Christianity moves inexorably southward. The book has been written with undergraduate general education students in mind--including meeting the needs of those in seminaries and theological institutes. ""A brilliant, in-depth overview of the main elements that constitute the Jewish-Christian tradition, situated in its historical and ecumenical context. Orji combines thorough, well-documented research with a clear easy-to-follow style. The book serves as a detailed introduction for the beginner, and a comprehensive review for the seasoned professional. This, indeed, is an outstanding text."" --William P. Roberts, Professor Emeritus, University of Dayton ""Prof. Orji has provided the reader with a comprehensive and historical introduction to the theology and religious studies that is centered in the Christian tradition, but integrates this knowledge along side the development of Judaism, Islam, and African religious traditions. The work is ambitiously contemporary with a vital approach given our increasingly pluralistic context."" --John D. Dadosky, Associate Professor, Regis College/University of Toronto Cyril Orji is Associate Professor of Systematic Theology at the University of Dayton, OH. He is the author of The Catholic University and the Search for Truth (2013).

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Christianity in the Global South written by Mark A. Lamport and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 1119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity has transformed many times in its 2,000-year history, from its roots in the Middle East to its presence around the world today. From the mid-twentieth century onward the presence of Christianity has increased dramatically in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and the majority of the world’s Christians are now nonwhite and non-Western. The Encyclopedia of Christianity in the Global South traces both the historical evolution and contemporary themes in Christianity in more than 150 countries and regions. The volumes include maps, images, and a detailed timeline of key events. The phrases “Global Christianity” and “World Christianity” are inadequate to convey the complexity of the countries and regions involved—this encyclopedia, with its more than 500 entries, aims to offer rich perspectives on the varieties of Christianity where it is growing, how the spread of Christianity shapes the faith in various regions, and how the faith is changing worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features reflections by scholars and practitioners from diverse religious traditions.
