Описание: "This second edition of the Westminster Dictionary of Theological Terms provides a comprehensive guide to nearly 7,000 theological terms, 1,000 more terms than the first edition. McKim`s succinct definitions cover a broad range of theological studies and related disciplines: contemporary theologies, biblical studies, church history, ethics, feminist theology, global theologies, hermeneutics, liberation theology, liturgy, ministry, philosophy, philosophy of religion, postcolonial theology, social sciences, spiritually, worship, and Protestant, Reformed, and Roman Catholic theologies. This new edition also includes cross-references that link readers to other related terms, commonly used scholarly abbreviations and abbreviations for canonical and deuterocanonical texts, an annotated bibliography, and a new introductory section that groups together terms and concepts, showing where they fit within particular theological categories. No other single volume provides the busy student, and the theologically experienced reader, with such easy access to so many theological definitions. "--

"How do we preach in a way that affirms Christian theology while also honoring the insights of other faith traditions?" "How do we preach about and help create genuine Christian community in a social networking culture?" "Questions Preachers Ask" examines many questions that are on the minds of preachers today, questions that focus on how to preach the gospel in a culture where biblical knowledge cannot be presumed and where the Bible is often viewed as untrustworthy. Well-known preachers, scholars, and authors, including Barbara Brown Taylor, Gail O'Day, Anna Carter Florence, Richard Lischer, Cleo LaRue, and Thomas Lynch, provide the answers.
This book, compiled to honor writer, preacher, teacher, and scholar Thomas G. Long at the end of his teaching career, addresses practical questions such as "How do we proclaim the good news to young adults who are on the margins of church or have left it?" and "How do we preach to faith communities that are highly diverse?" Perfect for preachers at any stage of their ministry, these essays offer hope and guidance for handling the difficult task of preaching in today's congregations. "

Описание: This book is for Presbyterians. I hope others besidesPresbyterians will read it, but the book is for Presbyterianswho want to know more about our Christianfaith. I have spent my life in the Presbyterian Church(U.S.A.), so the book is specially written to those peoplein this communion. I offer a look at important theologicalbeliefs we share as Presbyterians and what theycan mean for our lives. We share these beliefs with othersin our Reformed family and with most Christiansthroughout the world.The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is part of theReformed theological tradition. This tradition is rootedin the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation and isassociated with reformers such as Huldrych Zwingli, Heinrich Bullinger, Martin Bucer, and most especially, John Calvin. I have most often quoted Calvin in thesepages. He was a leading voice, and his legacy to usendures. Other voices join the chorus. Presbyterianshave inherited a rich theological heritage. We havemany important theologians and confessional documentswithin our family circle. They speak with differentaccents and emphases, but they witness to aReformed faith with significant theological emphasesthat, historically, have distinguished it from other Reformationtheologies and ecclesiastical traditions aswell as from Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodoxchurch traditions.We are, first of all, Christians--disciples of Jesus Christ. This is ourprimary identity. We express this identity through ourecclesiastical and denominational traditions. Here inthe United States, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) isone Presbyterian denomination. There are others. AllPresbyterians are part of the larger Reformed family, which includes churches that do not have "Presbyterian"as part of their names but that hold Reformedtheological convictions in common with Presbyterians.Some examples are the United Church of Christ, the Reformed Church in America, and the ChristianReformed Church. The Reformed family has manybranches in the United States and throughout theworld. As we reflect theologically in relation to onedenomination, we realize that there is a greater body--and a greater unity--that is represented by the terms"Presbyterian" and "Reformed."This book is meant for those without formal theologicaleducation, as well as seminary students andpastors. Much more documentation could have beenprovided, but I hope this has been written accessiblyand can be read easily. The intention is to take a look atsome important theological themes and how they havebeen understood and emphasized in Reformed andPresbyterian theology. These theological insights guideour churches and affect the whole of the church`s life.The book does not try to prescribe answers to issuesthat the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) faces in thesedays. It does try to provide some foundational understandingsthat can broaden and deepen the faith ofchurch members and provide theological nourishmentfor a Presbyterian faith that lives today.

Описание: Conversations with Calvin: Daily Devotions provides extracts from the commentaries of John Calvin. The short devotion that follows explains the meaning of Calvin's quotation in light of his overall writings. It also explores the meanings of Calvin's thought for contemporary Christian living. The goal is to introduce readers to Calvin's theology so it can be readily understood, and also to see ways Calvin's theological insights--expressed in the initial quotation--can shape our beliefs and the living of Christian faith in today's world.
