Inhaltsangabe

The first of an exciting new series, Conversations in Global Anglican Theology: Faith explores the impact of questions of faith across the Anglican Communion. 

Featuring contributions by a diverse group of theologians from the North and South, including Rose Hudson-Wilkin, Paul Ueti, and Simon Ro Chul Lai, the Conversations in Global Anglican Theology series addresses the most pressing questions facing the churches of the Anglican Communion. From classical issues such as the imagio dei and atonement theology to contemporary challenges such as interfaith relations and the interaction of church and state, the series features thought-provoking essays by established and emerging scholars.

Edited by Michael Battle, a leading Anglican thought leader, the first volume in the series, Conversations in Global Anglican Theology: Faith, features the voices of non-Western thinkers, long silenced in mainstream Anglican discourse, including Archbishop Thabo Makgoba and Bishop Rose Hudson-Wilkin.  Each contributor brings a unique perspective to the question of faith, but all confront this central dilemma:  How can we enable authentic conversations around the practice of faith in a global context in which many theologians and spiritual leaders in the Global South are often relegated to working in a ministry or a social justice context? How can contemplation and reflection nurture social action?  

Conversations in Global Anglican Theology: Faith is a paradigm shifting contribution.
