In the wake of the Civil War, every aspect of American life was to be shaped anew by the energies of a nation now reborn.

The Assurance of Things Hoped for: A Theology of Christian Faith
ISBN: 9780195109733 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Faith, since the earliest Christian theologians, has been regarded as the fundamental Christian virtue--the prerequisite for hope, charity, and good works. In this book, Avery Dulles examines the biblical foundations and history of theological reflection on faith, from the Greek and Latin fathers to such modern giants as Tillich, Rahner, and Lonergan. Further, Dulles presents his own systematic synthesis, reflecting on such topics as the nature and object of faith; the certitude of faith; the birth, growth, and loss of faith; and faith and salvation. The result is a refreshingly relevant...

The Craft of Theology: From Symbol to System
ISBN: 9780824514563 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Avery Dulles's theological career has spanned one of the most creative and confusing periods in the history of the church. With the goal of integrating new information from philosophy and the sciences into a deeper understanding of the world and society, the many theological schools pursued independent agendas, with the net effect of a loss of coherence. It is Fr. Dulles's contention that theological schools have drifted so far apart that what seems false and dangerous to one school seems almost self-evident to another. Theologians lack a common language, common goals, and common...

History of Apologetics
ISBN: 9780898709339 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 417 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Making the case for the Christian faith--apologetics--has always been part of the Church's mission. Yet Christians sometimes have had different approaches to defending the faith, responding to the needs of their respective times and framing their arguments to address the particular issues of their day. Cardinal Avery Dulles's A History of Apologetics provides a masterful overview of Christian apologetics, from its beginning in the New Testament through the Middle Ages and on to the present resurgence of apologetics among Catholics and Protestants. Dulles shows how Christian...

The Catholicity of the Church
ISBN: 9780198266952 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Avery Dulles, well-known for several previous works in ecclesiology, including Models of the Church, here surveys a theme that demands new treatment in the present global and ecumenical context. Nearly all Christians profess allegiance to the holy catholic church, but the meaning of the term "catholic" is widely disputed. This book investigates the historical use of the word and the various aspects of catholicity. Beginning with the word's divine source in Christ as "the first-born of all creation," Dulles goes on to discuss such topics as the "catholic principle," Catholicism as a specific...

Models of the Church
ISBN: 9780385133685 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. There is today a dramatic reexamination of structure, authority, dogma -- indeed, every aspect of the life of the Church is held up to scrutiny. Welcoming this as a sign of vitality, Avery Dulles has carefully studied the writings of contemporary Protestant and Catholic ecclesiologists and sifted out six major approaches, or "models," through which the Church's character can be understood: as Institution, Mystical Communion, Sacrament, Herald, Servant, and, in a recent addition to the book, as Community of Disciples. A balanced theology, he concludes, must incorporate the major...
