Jesus and the Powers: Christian Political Witness in an Age of Totalitarian Terror and Dysfunctional Democracies

An urgent call for Christians everywhere to explore the nature of the kingdom amid the political upheaval of our day.

Should Christians be politically withdrawn, avoiding participation in politics to maintain their prophetic voice and to keep from being used as political pawns? Or should Christians be actively involved, seeking to utilize political systems to control the levers of power?

In Jesus and the Powers, N. T. Wright and Michael F. Bird call Christians everywhere to discern the nature of Christian witness in fractured political environments. In an age of ascending autocracies, in a time of fear and fragmentation, amid carnage and crises, Jesus is king, and Jesus’s kingdom remains the object of the church's witness and work.

Part political theology, part biblical overview, and part church history, this book argues that building for Jesus's kingdom requires confronting empire in all its forms. This approach should orient Christians toward a form of political engagement that contributes to free democratic societies and vigorously opposes political schemes based on autocracy and nationalism. Throughout, Wright and Bird reflect on the relevance of this kingdom-oriented approach to current events, including the Russian-Ukraine conflict, the China-Taiwan tension, political turmoil in the USA, UK, and Australia, and the problem of Christian nationalism.

[Kindle] Christian Ethics: A Very Short Introduction

 

  • Christian Ethics: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions Book 238)

Christian Ethics: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions Book 238) 1st Edition, Kindle Edition

3.4 on Goodreads
112 ratings

This Very Short Introduction to Christian ethics introduces the topic by examining its sources and historical basis. D. Stephen Long presents a discussion of the relationship between Christian ethics, modern, and postmodern ethics, and explores practical issues including sex, money, and power. Long recognises the inherent difficulties in bringing together 'Christian' and 'ethics' but argues that this is an important task for both the Christian faith and for ethics.

Arguing that Christian ethics are not a precise science, but the cultivation of practical wisdom from a range of sources, Long also discusses some of the failures of the Christian tradition, including the crusades, the conquest, slavery, inquistions, and the Galileo affair. Placing them in the context of the theory and practice of ethics and their historical persepctive, he notes the challenges they raise for Christian ethics.

He concludes with a discussion of their implications in the modern era, considering how this affects our lives in the present age.

Reading Luke: A Literary and Theological Commentary (Reading the New Testament, 2nd Series)

In this book, Andrew Arterbury seeks to read and expound upon the final form of the Gospel of Luke from both a literary and theological angle. To buttress both endeavors, Arterbury routinely asks how the first readers (or listeners) of Luke’s Gospel likely made sense of both the literary flow of the book as well as the theological convictions it espouses. To ask about the readers Luke first envisioned when he wrote this Gospel is to ask how late first-century Jewish and Gentile Christians, enmeshed in the cultures of the Mediterranean basin, likely responded to Luke’s Gospel—a vivid narrative about the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, God’s anointed Son, Savior, and prophet.

What Are They Saying about Augustine?

What Are They Saying about Augustine? overviews the best contemporary scholarship on influential church father Augustine of Hippo. Using the latest and best research, scholar Joseph T. Kelley reviews Augustine’s life, sermons and letters, doctrinal writings, pastoral work, and personal faith and spirituality. Augustine emerges as a dynamic thinker struggling to integrate his Christian faith with the demands of reason, and to discern Christian meaning amidst the political and social controversies that plagued the late-Roman world. Kelley demonstrates that Augustine’s life and dynamic faith are surprisingly relevant to the contemporary Christian. The early- and mid-twentieth century saw new scholarly interest in Augustine. His persistent influence on Christian theology was evident at the Second Vatican Council—his thought is cited liberally in Council documents. Since the Council there has been an explosion in Augustine studies, marked largely by the shift from doctrinal to histori...
