    af Christian Smith & Karsten Trolle Viholm
    258,95 kr.

    Temabogen Im Wandel – Deutsche Krisen und ihre Bewältigung tager udgangspunkt i den moderne verdens udfordringer i en tysk sammenhæng.Udgivelsen giver eleverne et indtryk af og forståelse for tre udvalgte tyske kriser fra de seneste 10 år:Die Corona-KriseDie Klima-KriseDie Flüchtlingskrise.Hvert kapitel tager udgangspunkt i baggrunden for krisen, hvorefter krisen belyses multimedialt med tekster og billeder. Bogen hviler på et interkulturelt dannelsesbegreb, hvor elevernes egen for-forståelse udfordres og udvikles. I den sammenhæng er sammenligningen mellem de tre tyske kriser og Danmark en væsentlig del af bogen.Im Wandel henvender sig til specielt B-niveau, men vil også have interesse for A-niveau i 3.g. Øvelserne tager udgangspunkt i det kommunikative sprogsyn, hvor især den taskbaserede undervisning imødekommes.

    American evangelicalism has recently experienced a new openness to Roman Catholicism, and many evangelicals, both famous and ordinary, have joined the Catholic Church or are considering the possibility. This book helps evangelicals who are exploring Catholicism to sort out the kind of concerns that typically come up in discerning whether to enter into the full communion of the Catholic Church. In simple language, it explains many theological misunderstandings that evangelicals often have about Catholicism and suggests the kind of practical steps many take to enter the Catholic Church. The book frames evangelicals becoming Roman Catholic as a kind of ""paradigm shift"" involving the buildup of anomalies about evangelicalism, a crisis of the evangelical paradigm, a paradigm revolution, and the consolidation of the new Catholic paradigm. It will be useful for both evangelicals interested in pursuing and understanding Catholicism and Catholic pastoral workers seeking to help evangelical seekers who come to them.""While showing appreciation and respect for his evangelical patrimony, Christian Smith offers a careful, clear, and thoughtful path to the Catholic Church for those evangelicals who are entertaining Catholicism as they seek to walk more authentically in Christ. This is a truly unique contribution to the growing literature authored by former evangelicals who have found their way to St. Peter''s barque."" -Francis J. Beckwithauthor of Return to Rome: Confessions of An Evangelical Catholic""Christian Smith is correct in describing why it usually takes a ''paradigm revolution'' for an evangelical to become a Catholic. The ''anomalies'' he describes for evangelical life are mostly accurate and his presentation of Catholicism is attractive. But this intriguing book would have been even better if it had paused to reflect on why there are so many paradigm shifts in the other direction--of people born Catholic who become evangelical. Anyone--Catholic, evangelical, or a convert in either direction--who responds thoughtfully to the arguments of this book will be a better Christian for having made the effort.""-Mark Nollauthor of The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind""I expect that this book may turn out to be the definitive text (short of the Fathers only!) for evangelicals who are prepared to address themselves courageously to the ecclesiological question. Smith''s writing is brisk, starkly clear, challenging, and exhaustive (not exhausting!); he leaves no stone unturned. This is the best book I''ve seen on the topic.""-Thomas Howardauthor of On Being CatholicChristian Smith is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Sociology at the University of Notre Dame. He is the author of The Bible Made Impossible (2011), What is a Person? (2010), and Souls in Transition (2009).

  • - Why Biblicism Is Not a Truly Evangelical Reading of Scripture
    af Christian Smith
    251,95 kr.

    Biblicism, an approach to the Bible common among some American evangelicals, emphasizes together the Bible's exclusive authority, infallibility, clarity, self-sufficiency, internal consistency, self-evident meaning, and universal applicability. Acclaimed sociologist Christian Smith argues that this approach is misguided and unable to live up to its own claims. If evangelical biblicism worked as its proponents say it should, there would not be the vast variety of interpretive differences that biblicists themselves reach when they actually read and interpret the Bible. Far from challenging the inspiration and authority of Scripture, Smith critiques a particular rendering of it, encouraging evangelicals to seek a more responsible, coherent, and defensible approach to biblical authority.This important book has generated lively discussion and debate. The paperback edition adds a new chapter responding to the conversation that the cloth edition has sparked.
