The Vocation of Theology Today by Tom Greggs,Rachel Muers,Simeon Zahl Pdf

What is the task of theology in a complex religious and secular world? What are theologians called to contribute to society, the churches, and the academy? Can theology be both fully faithful to Christian tradition and Scripture, and fully open to the challenges of the twenty-first century? In this book, an international team of contributors, including some of the best-known names in the field, respond to these questions in programmatic essays that set the direction for future debates about the vocation of theology. David Ford, in whose honor the collection is produced, has been for many years a key figure in articulating and shaping the role of contemporary theology. The contributors are his colleagues, collaborators, and former students, and their essays engage in dialogue with his work. The main unifying feature of this exciting collection is not Ford's work per se, however, but a shared engagement with the pressing question of theology's vocation today.

The Drama of Living by David F. Ford Pdf

In this long awaited follow-on volume to his Archbishop of Canterbury’s Lent book, The Shape of Living, the renowned theologian David Ford explores how we can live wisely – not poring earnestly over difficult choices, but in the presence of Holy Wisdom - ‘God’s darling and delight, playing in his presence and over the whole world’. Such wisdom fires our hearts and imaginations, as well as our intellects, and enables us to live fully open to God, to others, and to life’s complexities, in freedom and joy. Playfulness is something many of us leave behind in youth, yet it is a primary characteristic of the kingdom of God – the joy of play pervades creation and should pervade our lives. Drawing on scripture and the poetry of Micheal O’Siadhail, David Ford enable us to recover a lost dimension in our Christian living.
