What Shall We Do? - Bok av Joseph M Lear - Inbunden

What Shall We Do? - Bok av Joseph M Lear - Inbunden

Since the 1960s, biblical scholars have noted a relationship between eschatology and ethics in Luke-Acts, but to date there has been no substantive study of the relationship between these themes. What Shall We Do? offers such a study. Lear observes and develops a logic that Luke--Acts presents that begins with eschatological expectation and ends with a particular pattern of life, especially with regard to possessions. He makes the bold claim that Luke has not given up on eschatological expectation...

Who Do the Ngimurok Say That They Are? - Bok av Kevin Lines - Inbunden

Who Do the Ngimurok Say That They Are? - Bok av Kevin Lines - Inbunden

This presents the problem of local Christianities, described by Kwame Bediako as those that \\have not known how to relate to their traditional culture in terms other than those of denunciation or of separateness.\\Kevin Lines''s phenomenological..

Education Has Nothing to Do with Theology - Bok av Edward J Newell - Inbunden

Education Has Nothing to Do with Theology - Bok av Edward J Newell - Inbunden

Does education have any relation to theology? How do the educator's worldview commitments speak to his or her practice of education? James Michael Lee brought a definite answer to these questions--a firm no to the relations question, and an advocacy for empirical findings over and against any speculative or theoretical positions in reply to the commitmentsquestion. Lee claimed to have a universal, neutral metatheory for all religious education, a theory that would apply to all religious educators..

Renewal Apologetics - Bok av Christopher J Wilson - Inbunden

Renewal Apologetics - Bok av Christopher J Wilson - Inbunden

Why do you believe in God? Why do you believe in the Bible? Why do you believe in miracles? These are questions that Christians are often asked by sceptics. The field of apologetics attempts to provide rational answers to these and other questions. Unfortunately, apologetical answers to these questions are often abstract and philosophical. However, the Christian apologist/evangelist has a much more powerful argument in their arsenal: the argument from miracles. Miracles are the original Christian..

Decolonizing Mission Partnerships - Evolving Collaboration between United Methodists in North Katanga and the United States of America - Bok av Taylor

We all know that healthy partnerships are essential to fruitful boundary-crossing ministries, but how exactly do we create them? What barriers must be overcome, and what self-examination must we do?

In this doctoral thesis, Denyer reflects on these questions as she examines the history of relational dynamics between American and Congolese United Methodists in the North Katanga Conference (DR Congo)...

Significant changes have resulted, but the dilemma has remained...
