African Theology in Its Social Context
Theology
“An excellent introduction into how far African theology has come and where it will need to go. . . . Bujo is especially worth reading because he looks not only at Christianity in village and town life, but also at issues besetting Christian faith in the cities. Highly recommended.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Important not only for those interested in current African theology, but also for anyone who wants to see how the very best of contextual theologies are being developed today.”
History & Biography
“This volume will introduce a wider public to what has been a little-known but important group in the Catholic Church in the United States: Korean American Catholics. They bring a distinctive story from their homeland and of their struggles in this country that is being woven into the multicultural tapestry of contemporary American Catholicism. For anyone wanting to understand this important group and the contributions they are making to the Catholic experience, this book is the place to begin.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Kim Lamberty has done missiology a great service by providing a dynamic theology of accompaniment, based on her own experience and the best of current missiological thinking. It will be of great benefit to all who practice this form of Christian discipleship.”
Theology
““Edward Schillebeeckx and Johann Baptist Metz were the leading Catholic figures engaging themes of hope and the future during the huge revival of interest in eschatology in the latter half of the twentieth century. In examining the work of each of them and then bringing them into critical conversation, Steven Rodenborn has done the theological community an immense service, illuminating their work and casting important light upon how Catholic theology turned 'toward the world' in the post-Vatican Council era."”
World Religions
“Hendrik Vroom's book achieves an unusually fine balance between respect for the religious traditions he investigates and candor about the strengths and weaknesses he sees from his own perspective. A well-informed and forthright account such as this will further interreligious dialogue as few recent books have.”
Salvation for the Sinned-Against
Theology
Foreword
“For readers seeking to see what kind of theological discourse will be necessary to keep different regions of World Christianity in communication with one another in the years to come, this book provides an excellent example. It sets a standard for what kind of theological thinking is needed for a World Christianity to be genuinely 'catholic,' in the sense of all-embracing, and respectful of the myriad voices of Christians today.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“A first-rate collection . . . Anyone interested in reconciliation needs to read this book.”
