The secret despair of the secular left : our fraying connections with our communities, our bodies, and the Earth / by Levy-Lyons, Ana,author.;
Includes bibliographical references"What is lost when we lose our religion? Our traditions? Connection and community? In The Secret Despair of the Secular Left, Ana Levy-Lyons seeks to find out. Levy-Lyons, a rabbinical student with a previous 18-year career as a Unitarian Universalist minister, shares insights into what goes missing when we lose our religious underpinnings and deeply held beliefs and practices. Drawing from a wide range of perspectives, including Jewish, Christian, and eastern religious traditions, Indigenous societies, and countercultural communities, Levy-Lyons aims to understand the sources of our modern despair and help readers find pathways of healing and reconnection. Levy-Lyons investigates three primary losses in today's world: disconnection, dislocation, and disembodiment. Disconnection refers to the loss of ties to community and each other in a world dominated by virtual interactions and polarizing social media. Dislocation is our separation from the earth and our intrinsic relationship with the land and our roots. Finally, disembodiment finds us alienated from our physical selves and our spiritual essence. In a society increasingly detached from our essential nature, we have forgotten the profound knowledge and wisdom that our bodies hold. When we realize what we've lost, we experience deep grief. But in exploring and understanding these losses, we are also self-empowered to reclaim pathways to more connected, grounded, and spirit-filled lives."--

Trinitarian responses to worldliness : towards a trinitarian theology of inculturation / by Yang, Heejun,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: Secular world and Trinitarian thinking -- A postliberal reaction (North America) -- A radical orthodoxy reaction (Britain) -- A radical hermeneutic reaction (European continent ) -- Conclusion: Towards a Trinitarian theology of inculturation.Are you a seminarian/scholar who wants to go further from your school's Barthian tradition? The purpose of this book is to connect cutting-edge post-Barthian trinitarian theological movements all around the world: postliberal theology (Yale school) in the US, radical orthodoxy (Cambridge school) in the UK, German radical hermeneutic theology (Zurich school in the German-speaking world), and the theology of inculturation (Korean Methodist school) in Asia. Although each theological movement had a tremendous impact on the entire area of theology, there has been no work done to connect those twenty-first-century theological trends. The strength of this book is that it connects different theological movements with the author's own unique view as a Korean theologian. Comparing different Trinitarian theological movements, the author argues for the necessity of a God-focused theology to embrace different human understandings in a world where Christianity is not dominant. The book claims that Christians can pursue a genuine dialectics of differentiation and interdependence when they understand the global phenomenon of Christianity's inculturation as the work of the Trinity who relates Godself to different worldly cultures

Christ and the common life : political theology and the case for democracy / by Bretherton, Luke,author.(CARDINAL)800944;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 469-503) and index.What is political theology? What is politics? -- Case studies in political theology -- Humanitarianism -- Black power -- Pentecostalism -- Catholic social teaching -- Anglicanism -- Sustaining a common life -- Communion and class -- Secularity, not secularism -- Toleration with hospitality -- Forming a common life -- Humanity -- Economy -- Sovereignty -- The people and populism -- Democratic politics.In Christ and the Common Life Luke Bretherton provides an introduction to historical and contemporary theological reflection on politics and opens up a compelling vision for a Christian commitment to democracy. In dialogue with Scripture and various traditions, Bretherton examines the dynamic relationship between who we are in relation to God and who we are as moral and political animals. He addresses fundamental political questions about poverty and injustice, forming a common life with strangers, and handling power constructively. And through his analysis of debates concerning, among other things, race, class, economics, the environ-ment, and interfaith relations, he develops an innovative political theology of democracy as a way through which Christians can speak and act faithfully within our current context. Read as a whole, or as stand-alone chapters, the book guides readers through the political landscape and identifies the primary vocabulary, ideas, and schools of thought that shape Christian reflection on politics in the West. Ideal for the classroom, Christ and the Common Life equips students to understand politics and its positive and negative role in fostering neighbor love.
