Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on educational ministries, Hastings offers a postcritical, synthetic approach to worshiping, witnessing, and wondering, grounded in scriptural ways of knowing God in Jesus Christ and in the power of the Holy Spirit. Here, lives marked by worship, witness, and wonder are understood not only to be harmonious with the evolutionary endowments of perception, action, and cognition, nor as well-attested practices of corporate and personal religious life, but also as a tripartite gestalt contingent on divine agency and mediated through participation in Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit. Hastings describes worship, witness, and wonder as ways Christians participate with a sense of common cause in the mission of the God of love and life, who comes to us in Jesus Christ "clothed in his gospel" and in the power of the Holy Spirit, who has been "poured out upon all flesh."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kagawa Toyohiko was one of the best-known evangelists and social reformers of the twentieth century. Founder of several religious, educational, social welfare, medical, financial, labor, and agricultural cooperatives, he was nominated twice for the Nobel Prize in Literature (1947 and 1948), and four times for the Nobel Peace Prize (1954, 1955, 1956, and 1960). Appealing to the masses who had little knowledge of Christianity, Kagawa believed that a positive interpretation of nature was a key missiological issue in Japan. He reasoned that a faith, which is rooted in the "downward movement" of Christ's incarnation, must support the scientific quest and meditate on the purpose or "upward movement" implicit in scientific findings. Through an anti-reductionist methodological pluralism that strives to "sees all things whole," this "scientific mystic" employed a wide range of Japanese and Western cultural resources to assert a complementary role for science and religion in modern society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of the anthropogenic threats to the singular planetary habitat we share with other human beings and non-human species, humanities scholars feel a renewed sense of urgency 1) to acknowledge the ways our species has funded particular histories of environmental exploitation, alienation, and collapse, 2) to unpack inherited assumptions that impact our views of nature and interspecies relations, and 3) to suggest ways of thinking and acting that seek to repair the damage and promote mutual flourishing for all of earth inhabitants. This volume brings together scholars in philosophy, theology, and religion who take up this urgent ethical task from a broad range of perspectives and locations.

Book excerpt: This book was derived through inspiration, research, and mostly the working of the Holy Spirit. Worship as a way of life was instituted from the foundations of this world and the worlds beyond. It was worship that inspired God to duplicate himself in definitive yet diminutive forms and create other beings beside himself. It was love that was the driving force behind the inspiration to create worshippers that propelled his desire for adoration. It is the heart of every living thing that creeps, crawls, or walks on this earth and other livable lands. Worship has been the source of healing and hurt, if abused mistreated or misused. Blasphemy is the contradicting attitude toward God in conflict and opposition to the idea of worship, reproaching deity. As is norm, the breaking sequence brings a consequence, so is the blasphemy of deity as I know it—Elohim. This book sheds light into deeper insights, truths, and candor into the existence and continuance of worship as the source and basis of happiness. Matthew 26:65 refers to Jesus, the author of worship, a blasphemer according to the Sanhedrin, sending him to his Crucifixion, death, burial, and Resurrection. The lack of insight of the Sanhedrin into his attributes and nature paradoxically brought about the consequence for defiance, reflecting the spiritual effects of rebellion and insolence. Some penalty came as sudden retribution; others, over time, became the cost of impudence and its audacity. Penitence (due process) is taught in this book as a system of redemption from the effects of insubordination as opposed to the means to the end, i.e., blasphemy! Enjoy the journey as the times of refreshing emanating from the throne of the Creator engulf you.
