Introduction To Theology In Global Perspective

$36.00

An exciting, comprehensive guide to doing theology as part of the Catholic ecclesial community in today’s global world.

First, this is a book about doing theology, emphasizing not so much content but theology as an activity, a process. Second, this is a book about doing Catholic theology, that is to say anchored in Scripture but also as interpreted by ecclesial Tradition and Magisterium, theology rooted in the experience that the divine is to be found in a sacramental world and community. At a third level, Bevans describes systematic theology as reflection upon the central teachings of the church — creation, sin, redemption, Trinity, anthropology, salvation and eternal life, ecclesiology. And all this is done in the light of a fourth key insight, the contextual nature of theology, as it makes sense of life in a global world shot through with cultural and religious plurality.

This book bears the hallmark of Bevans’s work and experience teaching and doing pastoral work on five continents, bringing together insights garnered over a lifetime.
