Paul M. van Buren's A Theology of the Jewish-Christian Reality
Paul M. van Buren was the first Christian theologian to argue that the Jewish No to Jesus is a Yes to God. He offered Christians and Jews fresh ways of understanding both themselves and the other. His trilogy, A Theology of the Jewish-Christian Reality, begins by honoring God's enduring covenant with the Jews and then proceeds to identify false turns both traditions have taken in their walks with God. He called both to critical self-reflection in…
Who Delivered Israel from Egypt
The affirmation by both Jews and Christians that God delivered Israel from Egypt can and should serve as a resource for inter-faith dialogue between these two religious traditions
Becoming Friends
Becoming Friends Ellen T. Charry (bio) Keywords Jewish-Christian encounter, friendship, Leonard Swidler, Dialogue Decalogue, Franz Rosenzweig, religious freedom I began engaging in interreligious dialogue as a very small child, and it has framed my entire life. Being deeply socialized into one religious tradition, while eager to grow from the wisdom of others, is the only outlook on religion that I have ever known. Yet, Leonard Swidler provided t…
Ryan N. S. Topping, Happiness and Wisdom: Augustine's Early Theology of Education
God and the art of happiness
Christians are skittish talking about happiness because it sounds selfish and shallow. But Christian theology has long engaged the topic on its own terms. While theology has been oriented toward eschatological happiness, the Bible offers a temporal teaching of happiness for individuals and communities in obedience to non-voluntarist divine commands that foster individual and communal flourishing. The Hebrew “ashrey” is the first word of the Psalt…

t was the final gathering of pastors at the Joe R. Engle Institute of Preaching.I look forward to this institute all year, when those who have been in ministry for at least two years come to be better preachers-to better proclaim the gospel in their particular communities.I look forward to this gathering of preachers because they know what they know, and they know what they don't know-and they want my help, though I'm kept humble by the pastor wh…
John Paul II and the Jewish People: A Jewish‐Christian Dialogue – Edited by David G. Dalin and Matthew Levering
Educating for Wisdom: Theological Studies as a Spiritual Exercise
Augustine set the goal of human life as knowing, loving, and enjoying God forever. He also set the practical task of theology as knowledge of God seeking the wisdom of God. Theology is to enable wisdom. The fourfold curriculum now focuses primarily on mastering information and technical ministerial skills. If Augustine is correct, however, the various theological subdisciplines, now generally divided into guilds, share a sacred calling that trans…
The Valley of Love and Delight
Global Mission and the Challenge of Theological Catholicity
Dedication to Patrick D. Miller
Virtual Salvation
Fortunately, Christian salvation was never defined precisely. In a culture of wealth like consumer capitalism—that seeds global culture—one's self-concept is constructed by advertising and other market-driven ploys that fan vanity, insecurity, and greed leading to anger, violence, and ennui amidst plenty. Such a socially constructed self is met by a theologically constructed self, a virtual self created by God. Whether through the cross, the trin…

By the Renewing of Your Minds: The Pastoral Function of Christian Doctrine
Through close readings of a number of classic texts, this book develops the thesis that classic Christian theology is thoroughly shaped by pastoral and moral purposes. The book's aim is to show contemporary theologians how to teach the faith in a morally constructive fashion, transcending the current destructive opposition between ‘academic’ and ‘pastoral’ theology.

The Moral Function of Doctrine
“[The] divorce of theoretical from practical concerns in doctrinal exegesis has been maintained at a high price: Intellectual concerns have obscured the moral shaping function of Christian beliefs. Yet, a careful examination of many dogmatic treatises reveals concern for the moral effects of doctrine alongside coherence and intelligibility. Where the two are found together, ignoring the moral and pastoral questions in favor of those of coherence …
The Case for Concern: Athanasian Christology in Pastoral Perspective
Academic Theology in Pastoral Perspective
“In our secular age, guidance from any source but self is disdained, the notion of centering one's life in anything—perhaps especially God—appears a bit eccentric, and public discourse is dominated by anger and adversariness. In this atmosphere, Christianity constitutes a refreshing and needed alternative because it does not simply celebrate human life but seeks to transform human persons through the grace of God in Jesus Christ by the Holy Spiri…
