Come back, Christianity - all is forgiven
Reasons for the recent interest in public theology are discussed [following the special issue of Theology in September 2014], followed by the claim that in Britain today public theology must take the form of action for justice and peace. A number of examples are offered including a short description of training for justice and peace leadership in the Queen's Foundation for Ecumenical Theological Education. The essay concludes by suggesting a numb…
Towards the Prophetic Church
Thirty years ago John Hull wrote “What Prevents Christian Adults from Learning?”. This new book asks “What Prevents Christian Adults from Acting?” How has it come about that the Church appears to be so preoccupied with itself? What happened to the quest for the social justice of the Kingdom of God? John Hull's search for understanding took him back to the prophetic tradition of the Bible, and he discovered that this has become neglected and even …
Difficult Texts
Although these verses from Matthew 23 are usually regarded as being difficult because of their negative attitude towards Jewish leaders, there is another difficulty which is hardly ever noticed: they reinforce an ancient prejudice against blind people
Another Blinding Documentary on Channel 4
David Bradford is a 28-year-old freelance writer who is gradually losing his sight as a result of the genetic condition retinitis pigmentosa. He was recently approached by Channel 4 about the prospect of making a television documentary on the subject of his sight loss. In weighing up this proposition, David sought the opinion of the blind academic, John Hull. This is a transcript of the emails between David and John, in which they discuss the dif…
The Broken Body in a Broken World
There are considerable advantages for a Christian theology of disability when the Christian doctrine of the person takes as its starting point not the image of God, but the broken body of Christ. This starting point leads us away from aspects of Christian tradition which tend to marginalise disabled people toward those which emphasise disability as an alternative theology to the theology of perfection and power. The implications of such a theolog…
Competition and Spiritual Development
Four levels of competition are distinguished: the local, face-to-face level, the industrial level, the level of government and the level of global currency competition. Influence seeps down to the local level from the global level, turning otherwise healthy forms of competition into destructive patterns, in which human relations are modelled upon the relations between currencies. The result is a spirituality of money, which shapes the image of th…
Bargaining with God
In view of the developmental conceptual and emotional similarities held by individuals with regard to both God and money, it seems likely that in an intense money culture the ultimate reality of God will be confused with, and even displaced by, the ultimate reality of money. Bargaining appears to be a developmental stage in both economic socialization and in the development of relationships with God, and, therefore, a study of the similarities be…

the ideology. Any individual or group of individuals adhering to an ideology is bound to be enclosed within it to some extent, because an ideology is a way of interpreting one's business in the world. An ideology shapes the world within which one lives. This enclosure within the ideology, which is a necessary part of commitment to an ideology, may be partial or it may be total. I am interested in the educational implications of ideological enclos…

his paper is not concerned with religious education in the curriculum but with the nature of the relation between theology and educational theory. All sophisticated religious belief systems have histories of such relations, the literature of Christianity, Judaism and Islam being particularly rich. Theology of education at the present time is an active field of interdisciplinary study. Recent dissertation abstracts indicate the sort of work taking…
