Produced in honor of Wallace M. Alston, the book is framed around the areas of discussion that Alston, as director of the Center of Theological Inquiry in Princeton, New Jersey, has diligently placed at the forefront of Christian reflection. Written by some of today's leading Christian pastors and theologians, these insightful chapters probe topics of interest to both the church and the academy. In the first section they examine cultural, social, political, and ethical challenges to Christian theology. In the second section they discuss theology's ongoing dialogue with the sciences and the humanities. In the third section others illuminate the role of theology in preaching and teaching. In the fourth and final section of the book editors look at several cutting-edge themes drawn from Reformed and ecumenical theology.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Michael Welker (Editor), Cynthia Jarvis (Editor)</note> <subject> <topic>Theology -- Study and teaching</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Christian Theology</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Pastoral theology</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">230</classification> <classification authority="ddc">W438-M62</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780802828576</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15394/162.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15394/162.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071456.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
