In his autobiography Moltmann tells his engaging and searching life story, from his Hamburg youth in an unconventional parental home up to the incomplete completion of the present moment. Yet his narrative also sheds light on the creative arc of Moltmann's work, on the journey of his own theological development from its beginnings after World War II through the beginnings of political theology and, most phenomenally, the advent of the theology of hope.

In this new book, Martin Israel explores the question: How can we learn to obey the commandment to love our neighbor? Through powerful meditations on the nature and responsibilities of existence and love Israel shows to his readers some of paths for the "mystical walk" that ends in love. He writes:"One does not believe in God; one knows Him by experience, and that experience makes all life's vicissitudes worth while. For this end is glorious [and] as one grows so one's vision expands to include all humanity and ultimately all that lives."

The Great Open Dance offers a progressive Christian theology that endorses contemporary ideals: environmental protection, economic justice, racial reconciliation, interreligious peace, gender equality, and LGBTQ+ celebration. Just as importantly, this book provides a theology of progress—an interpretation of Christian faith as ever-changing and ever-advancing into God’s imagination. Faith demands change because Jesus of Nazareth started a movement, not a tradition. He preached about a new world, the Kingdom of God, and invited his followers to work toward the divine vision of universal flourishing. This vision includes all and excludes none. Since we have not yet achieved the world that Jesus describes, we must continue to progress. The energizing impulse of this progress is the Trinity: Abba, Jesus, and Sophia, three persons united by love into one perfect community. God is fundamentally relational, and humankind, made in the image of God, is relational as a result. We are inextricably entwined with one another, sharing a common purpose and a common destiny. In this vision, we find abundant life by practicing agape, the universal, unconditional love that Abba extends, Jesus reveals, and Sophia inspires.

An actology—introduced by the first book in this series, Actology: Action, Change and Diversity in the Western Philosophical Tradition—understands reality as action in changing patterns. Actological Readings in Continental Philosophy reads a number of continental philosophers through this lens, and An Actology of the Given explores the concepts of the gift, givenness, and giving in the light of reality understood as action in changing patterns. Mark’s Gospel: An Actological Reading is what it says it is. An Actological Metaphysic is a more systematic treatment of cosmology and of such concepts as truth, knowledge, causality, time, space, life, and society, to see what happens when they are understood actologically—that is, with reality understood as action in changing patterns. An Actological Theology similarly asks what Christian theology might look like if God, the universe, ourselves, and everything else is understood as action in changing patterns.

lluminated by a profound yet humorous vision, Lifting the Taboo explores the specific relationship women of many colors, cultures, ages, and sexual orientations have to their own deaths, their attitudes towards loss, and their disposition to their role as primary care-givers to the dying.Specifically, the book weighs the implications of breast cancer and examines in detail Alzheimer's Disease which, contrary to popular myth, can in several significant ways be perceived as a women's disease. Investigating mothers' responses to children's deaths, Sally Cline establishes that women's relationships to death are intricately connected to the experience of giving birth. They are, she argues, therefore psychologically and emotionally different from those of men. Cline goes on to examine women's roles and responses to AIDS and suicide, women's sexual relationships while dying, how society views widows as leftover lives, and women's radical work in hospices and death therapy, as well as their roles as female funeral directors.

This book bears us on eagles' wings into the vault of the heavens and plunges us into the hidden depths of the soul. As the climate crisis alerts us to the state of the planet, so we look into our soul. We see how the Bible and classic spiritual writers use arresting meteorological imagery to describe both the discovery of the Divine and the condition of humanity. We explore a rich and diverse vocabulary, archetypal, universal, and primal, enabling us to describe the movements of the soul. These images and metaphors help us express what is going on in our spiritual lives as we learn the skill of reading the climate of our soul. Attentiveness to the ecology of the soul leads to a sharper perception of the environmental issues facing our planet. This book helps us to look differently at our turbulent world within the interplay of microcosm of soul and macrocosm of climate, celebrating a sacramental approach to the universe, to the elements, and to ourselves.
