Christian Theology in Asia

Christian Theology in Asia

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kim, Sebastian C. H., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, The majority of the world's Christians now live outside Europe and North America, and global Christianity is becoming increasingly diverse. Interest in the history and theology of churches in non-Western contexts is growing rapidly as 'old world' churches face this new reality. This book focuses on how Asian Christian theologies have been shaped by the interaction of Christian communities with the societies around them and how they relate to the specific historical contexts from which they have emerged. The distinctiveness of Asian Christianity is shown to be the outcome of dealing with various historical challenges. Questions addressed include: - How does Asian Christianity relate to local socio-cultural, religious and political environments? - What is distinctive about the historical development of Asian theologies? - How have Asian theologies contributed to contemporary theological discussions within world Christianity?

Religion in America to

Its guiding theme is American pluralism. In America, the number and diversity of religious bodies increased to levels unprecedented in the older nations of the world, as did the percentage of Americans who chose to belong to them. Meanwhile, churches with roots in Europe were forced to adapt to their new environment, becoming markedly different from their ancestral faiths. Religion in America to provides a concise introduction to the central themes of American religious history before the Civil War, covering the history of Native American religions, Colonial American religions, Protestantism, Anglicanism, and African American religions. The book is structured chronologically, allowing connections to be made between religious and secular history.

The Gods of Roman Britain

The Gods of Roman Britain

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Green, Miranda J. / Aldhouse-Green, Miranda, PUBLISHER: Shire Publications, This book looks at the religious beliefs of the people of the Roman province of Britain and at the gods they worshipped. Little literary evidence survives and it is therefore necessary to rely almost wholly on epigraphic and iconographical representations. The book first examines the pre-Roman Celtic background to Romano-British religion from about 500 BC. The chapters following analyse the nature of the evidence; the introduction of Roman religion to the province; oriental cults including Christianity; the integration of Roman with pre-existing British and other Celtic cults, and the resulting composite religion which thus emerged. The final chapter examines stylised Celtic representations of anonymous divinities. Miranda Green is currently Professor of Archaeology at University of Wales College, Newport, where she is also Director of the SCARAB Research Centre.

Language in the Confessions of Augustine

Language in the Confessions of Augustine

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Burton, Philip, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Philip Burton explores Augustine's treatment of language in his Confessions - a major work of Western philosophy and literature, with continuing intellectual importance. One of Augustine's key concerns is the story of his own encounters with language: from his acquisition of language as a child, through his career as schoolboy orator then star student at Carthage, to professor of rhetoric at Carthage and Rome. Having worked his way up to the eminence of Court Orator to the Roman Emperor at Milan, Augustine rediscovered the catholic Christianity of his childhood - and decided that this was incompatible with his rhetorical profession. Over the next ten years, he gradually reinvents himself as a different sort of language professional: a Christian intellectual, commentating on Scripture and preaching to his flock.

Pentecostalism: Origins and Developments Worldwide

Pentecostalism: Origins and Developments Worldwide

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hollenweger, Walter J., PUBLISHER: Hendrickson Publishers, One of the premier interpreters of Pentecostalism, Walter J. Hollenweger has written what is in many ways a sequel to his magisterial "The Pentecostals" (). This volume assesses the origins of perhaps the fastest-growing religious phenomenon in this century in light of its current development. Hollenweger contends Pentecostalism is at a critical crossroads in its evolution. Focusing on the theological stories of the Pentecostal movement within the contexts of its "Black Oral Root," "Catholic Root," "Evangelical Root," "Critical Root," and "Ecumenical Root," Hollenweger calls our attention to the significance of this movement for religion, politics, and, indeed the future of the world. "I know of no one else who has the breadth of knowledge, the depth of understanding, or the grasp of such a broad base of scholarship to be able to write this book.... This fascinating book is at times playful, at times deadly serious, and at times simply informative. It will stretch the thinking of all who care to be taught, and challenge the hypocrisy of those who think they know it all. And it will help us all to understand better than we have before, the roots that have nurtured one of the most vital Christian movements in the twentieth century." " Cecil M. Robeck, Jr., Professor of Church History and Ecumenics, Director of the David du Plessis Center for Christaian Spirituality, Fuller Theological Seminary "Pentecolstalism is the fastest growing and most vital Christian movement on the globe today. What great news that the esteemed elder statesman of Pentecostal studies has now given us this comprehensive and absorbing account of how it started and why it is growing."
