Science & Faith
“In this fascinating book, the authors not only update readers on contemporary cosmology and astrobiology's search for extraterrestrial life, but also develop the kind of public, interdisciplinary theology where both theology and the sciences are reshaped to contribute to a comprehensive understanding of what will be at stake for these widely divergent disciplines once extraterrestrial life is discovered.”
Reforming Theological Anthropology
Theology
“F. LeRon Shults has written a profoundly challenging book that clearly demonstrates his deep conviction that the Reformed theological tradition has the inner strength and vitality to rise to contemporary interdisciplinary challenges in ways that we could hardly have imagined before. Shults argues successfully that Christian theology now has the opportunity and obligation to rethink the Christian understanding of human nature. His explorations of the conceptual space of theological anthropology culminate in a revisioning of its three traditional loci: human nature, sin, and the image of God. This book not only will enrich current dialogue among theologians but also will resonate with scientists and philosophers who are challenged by ongoing debates about human uniqueness and the emergence of consciousness.”
Science & Faith
“The attempt to understand the nature of human nature is now at the heart of one of the most important interdisciplinary discussions of our time. . . This book will benefit all of us who are committed to improve our understanding of the human condition and the rather distinctive phenomenon of embodied personhood that is at the heart of it.”
Science & Faith
“I am happy to very strongly recommend Adam Pryor's new book, The God Who Lives. This highly unusual theological work is remarkable and unique in every possible way. At the heart of this exciting book is the question of how the evolution or emergence of life relates to the philosophically complex question of who God is, whether God is, and if so, where God actually exists. . . . Where this leads us is to a God who is living, even a living absence, but a God who is far from inert or inactive in this world and in our lives.”
Theology
“This theological anthropology is a remarkable accomplishment. Hans Schwarz has given us a true interdisciplinary work that deals with every possible dimension and topic that one hopes to find in such a volume. . . . Scholars and students will find this book a rich and exciting resource.”
The Postfoundationalist Task of Theology
“F. LeRon Shults's theological debut is a major accomplishment. Au courant with the cutting edge of contemporary theories of rationality, he moves effortlessly between the different intellectual domains of theological and philosophical reflection. In this dynamic process he creatively revisions the theology of Pannenberg and places it in a challenging postfoundationalist dialogue with the wide-ranging and complex profile of contemporary North American theology.”
Science & Faith
“In this remarkably accomplished and mature work on theological anthropology, Celia Deane-Drummond displays her extraordinary gifts as an interdisciplinary theologian. . . . A wonderful book.”
