Surprisingly, the only biography of this towering figure was written by his son, just two years after his death. Paul Gutjahrs book, therefore, is the first modern critical biography of a man some have called the Pope of Presbyterianism. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1402350 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1297908 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1235681 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1049401 Eire traces the concept of eternity from ancient times to the present.

Using insights from evolutionary biology, process theology, and the range of world religions, he proposes that evolution can provide a key to becoming religious. God is like a dance, he says, and by participating in this creative process we are dancing with the Sacred. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=405256 Womens Underworld Journeys, Ancient and Modern http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=368068 Rowe (philosophy, Purdue U.) provides a critical study of the ancient argument for the existence of God, examining and interpreting historically significant versions of the argument from Aquinas to Samuel Clarke and exploring the major objections that have been advanced against it.

In our own day, says Elizabeth Johnson, an analogous debate over right speech about God is exceptionally alive in a new way thanks...to a sizable company of bakers, women who historically have borne the primary responsibility for lighting the cooking fires and feeding the world. In She Who Is Elizabeth Johnson attempts to braid a footbridge between the ledges of classical theology and feminist theology, and in so doing offers the most solidly grounded case to date for using womens experience and female imagery to describe the Christian experience of God. With an extraordinary control of the history of Christian God-talk from the Cappadocians to contemporary theologians, and with an acute sensitivity to the varieties of womens? experience today, Johnson shows in countless ways how feminist language about God belongs in our pulpits and at our altars. Put in starkest terms, the questions this book poses are two: Can the Christian doctrine of God accommodate a thoroughgoing feminist approach? And can feminist theology learn anything from classical Christian discourse about God? Johnsons response to the first is to show how feminist theology, drawing on womens interpreted experience and a critical retrieval of elements in Scripture and tradition, can enable speech about God previously closed to the imagination - that it can move the tradition from an androcentric to a genuinely liberating view of God. To the second question Johnson responds by showing how the classical tradition can add density to feminist speech about God, directing attention to the vast scope of divine activity. Womens reality is thus fully capax Dei, capable not only of receiving and bearing the divine but of symbolizing it as well. The achievement of She Who Is is to be found not only in its compelling argument, in its broad learning, in the comfort it will give women and the discomfort it will cause business-as-usual churchmen but also in its rhetorical range and literary skill. Its language is, in turn, powerful, evocative, learned, playful, parenetic, subtle - suitable, insofar as language can ever be, to the dark and gracious mystery it attempts to disclose.--BOOK JACKET. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=182708 This critical study decodes the most cryptic and elusive patterns of Karl Barths dialectic. Hunsinger not only offers a new and authoritative interpretation of Barths mature theology, but also places Barths work in relation to contemporary discussions of truth, justified belief, double agency, and religious pluralism. Through a fresh and compelling reading of Church Dogmatics, Hunsinger offers a new account of the coherence of that work as a whole.--BOOK JACKET. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=78590 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=149187 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=46797
