Drawing inspiration from the classic Buddhist Mahayana text the Vimalakirti Nirdesa, Buddhafield aspires to be first and foremost a "field of living beings" - but also, of "high resolve, virtuous application, generosity, tolerance, meditation, wisdom," and much more. Buddhafielders are equally at home on a month-long silent meditation...

South Africa was a divided society under apartheid, which also shaped the churches ethnically. The legacy of apartheid continues to cause division between people through inequality, injustice, skewed power relations, and marginalisation. The author presents an analytical tool that has been derived from key...

Diese neuzeitliche Erfahrung zwingt und befreit Menschen, ohne Ruckgriff auf einen jenseitigen Gott von Gottes-Widerfahrnissen zu reden. In Philosophie, Soziologie und Literatur finden sich vergleichbare Versuche, atheistisch von Heiligem zu sprechen. Methodisch ist die Hermeneutik fur dieses interdisziplinare Projekt nur bedingt tauglich. Leitend ist ein dekonstruktivistisches Verfahren im Sinne einer kritischen Wahrnehmungslehre, in der sich allgemein verstandliche und fachtheologische,...

Freedom and Creation in Three Traditions
ISBN: 9780268009878 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With creation of the universe as its focus and a deeper understanding of human freedom as its goal, Freedom and Creation in Three Traditions is a work of philosophical theology that brings together Jewish, Christian, and Muslim perspectives on the complex questions surrounding divine and human freedom. Burrell shows how the three traditions (each avowing the free creation of the universe by God) have developed a view of free human actors in relation to their initial affirmations that the universe is freely created by God. The concept of a free creation of the universe forms a motif for...

Virtue in Dialogue: Belief, Religious Diversity, and Women's Interreligious Encounter
ISBN: 9781620323915 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Religious diversity is a persistent theological predicament for Christian thinkers. Historically, theologians have wrestled with the relationship between believing Christians and religious others. The clash between the Christian doctrine of salvation and non-Christian belief systems often comes down to the question, can non-Christians be "saved"? In a pluralist world, a second question arises: can believers of divergent traditions reconcile their theological differences? Is the logical answer that one believer abandon her faith convictions and promote a relativistic mindset? This book draws...

A Contemporary Theology for Ecumenical Peace
ISBN: 9781137397966 / Angielski / Twarda / 57 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Humanity's long history of intermittent conflicts and contemporary violence undermines Christian's (and their Jewish and Muslim fellow believers) religious confidence in and moral commitment to world peace. The principal issue is the ambiguity of God's presence and action in the world as we experience it. In A Contemporary Theology for Ecumenical Peace, this problem is addressed by relating biblical theology to contemporary philosophical and theological perspectives to motivate and sustain the practice of love and justice in the context of civil religion.

Within this context, the history of the African Independent Churches (AICs) is placed, which appear as a mergence of various traditions and motivations: the pursuit of independence from the colonial power and the mission churches connected with it, the preservation of traditional African religiousness and the absorption of Pentecostal piety with its heavy emphasis on the gifts of the spirit.

Konfessionelle Identität und ökumenische Prozesse

Bei der vorliegenden Untersuchung handelt es sich um einen Beitrag zur okumenischen Hermeneutik. Die Frage lautet, ob die Betonung konfessioneller Identitat das Ziel christlicher Einheit eher unterlauft oder aber fruchtbare Wege interkonfessioneller Verstandigung eroffnet. Es wird dafur argumentiert, dass angesichts der fur die Okumene konstitutiven Spannung von Identitat und Differenz nur ein starker Identitatsbegriff, der kulturwissenschaftlich fundiert und theologisch reflektiert ist, zu erhellen vermag, wie konfessionelle Identitat in okumenischen Prozessen problematisiert und durch...
