Perplexity in the Moral Life
ISBN: 9781608994380 / Angielski / Miękka / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Consider the following situation: a mayor is holding captive the leader of a terrorist group that has placed bombs throughout the city. It is determined that the only way to get the terrorist to confess where the bombs are hidden is to torture his child in front of him. Should the mayor torture an innocent child to save the lives of many? In Perplexity in the Moral Life Santurri discusses how situations of moral perplexity are to be construed and how the interpretation of these situations might be constrained by the presuppositions of Christian ethics. Often in our practical lives we are...

Freedom of the Self
ISBN: 9781608991051 / Angielski / Miękka / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Freedom of the Self revitalizes the question of identity formation in a postmodern era through a deep reading of Christian life in relation to current trends seen in the Emergent and Missional church movements. By relocating deep identity formation as formed and released through a renewed appraisal of kenotic Christology coupled with readings of Continental philosophy (Derrida, Levinas, Marion) and popular culture, Keuss offers a bold vision for what it means to be truly human in contemporary society, as what he calls the ""kenotic self."" In addition to providing a robust reflection of...

Embodied Cross
ISBN: 9781608991495 / Angielski / Miękka / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The cross carries the polar memories of history. One memory is the terrible violence imposed on Jesus, and the other is the memory of faith in the midst of the deepest abyss in human history. A theology of the cross contextualizes the dangerous combination of these memories in the present reality of life and death. A theology of the cross is thoroughly preoccupied with the agency of God, but not in a way that deals with the systematic apologetics of the knowledge of God. It deals with the knowledge of God before it becomes knowledge. It is the matter of the living and dying of our life. This...

The Protestant Ethic or the Spirit of Capitalism
ISBN: 9781606086599 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Description: Since the publication of Max Weber's classic, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, it has long been assumed that a distinctly Protestant ethos has shaped the current global economic order. Against this common consensus, Kathryn D. Blanchard argues that the theological thought of John Calvin and the Protestant movement as a whole has much to say that challenges the current incarnation of the capitalist order. This book develops an approach to Christian economic ethics that celebrates God's gift of human freedom, while at the same time acknowledging necessary, and...

The Enigma of Justice
ISBN: 9781608997633 / Angielski / Miękka / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While justice is thought indispensible for a healthy society, its complex character gives rise to conflicting applications. Accordingly, The Enigma of Justice serves as an appropriate title. In greater detail, the course is set with a consideration of justice in context of the prophets. These were faced with the unenviable task of fine-tuning the monarchy to its covenant ideals. The topic is then treated in its classical setting, as one of the cardinal virtues. This introduces a series of competing theories, more or less compatible with one another. In still greater detail, the text treats a...

The Death of Secular Messianism
ISBN: 9781606086506 / Angielski / Miękka / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Description: The Death of Secular Messianism argues that, the claims of secularists notwithstanding, modernity did not so much abandon humanity's historic search for the divine, but rather transposed it into a new, innerworldly key. This "secret religion of high modernity" came in both positivistic and humanistic variants. The first sought to overcome finitude by means of scientific and technological progress. The second sought to overcome contingency by creating a collective Subject--the Modern Democratic State or the Communist Party--in and through which human beings would become the...

Being Human, Becoming Human: Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Social Thought
ISBN: 9781608994205 / Angielski / Miękka / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Description: Who are we? What does it mean to be human? What is the purpose of our existence? In our time these continue to be urgent questions. The German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer thought deeply about these questions out of a desire to understand the importance of Christ and the incarnation for modern culture. His conviction that Christ died for a new humanity is at the core of his theological anthropology. Bonhoeffer's Christ-centered, Trinitarian theology establishes the intrinsic sociality of humanity as made in the image of God. Being Human, Becoming Human assembles a distinguished...

Combating HIV: A Ministerial Strategy for Zambian Churches
ISBN: 9783639192407 / Angielski / Miękka / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Combating HIV in Zambian Churches. Silence, shame and stigma associated with HIV infection has caused exclusion and suffering to people greatly affected by the virus. This study proposes the creation of HIV support groups (Circles of Hope) as a strategy to combat HIV. The study is a brain child of these support groups which are being created in local congregations in Zambia. This study therefore is about a missiological praxis for the creation of Circles of Hope as an entry point for faith based organisations to build HIV competent communities. HIV requires a holistic approach which mobilises...

The Value of The Naval Chaplain in The Fleet Marine Force
ISBN: 9783639292657 / Angielski / Miękka / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As a result of interviews, it was found that many Naval Chaplains serving in the Fleet Marine Force fail to have an accurate sense of worth as they serve the people God has called them to serve. Because Marines and Sailors don't share with their chaplains how they really think of the chaplain, the chaplain is left wondering about his significance. Through interviews and questionnaires, Marines and Sailors serving in the Fleet Marine Force were queried regarding their concept of the value of the Naval Chaplain serving in the Fleet Marine Force. In short, it was found that for the average...

Most organizations come to believe that their problems stem from doing the wrong things. They are unfortunately looking in the wrong place. The problem with the demise of large and successful organizations is not related to what they are doing. The problem is rather in what they have actually become. And they simply fail to see it. It is only in understanding ""who we are"" that the sinking trajectory of large and...
