With the profound changes in today's intellectual and scientific
landscape, traditional ways of speaking about human nature, sin,
and the image of God have lost their explanatory power. In this
volume F.LeRon Shults explores the challenges to and opportunities
for rethinking current religious views of humankind in contemporary
Western culture. From philosophy to theology, from physics to
psychology, we find a turn to the categories of "relationality."
Shults briefly traces this history from Aristotle to Levinas,
showing its impact on the Christian doctrine of anthropology, and
he argues that the biblical understanding of humanity has much to
contribute to today's dialogue on persons and on human becoming in
relation to God and others. Shults's work stands as a potent effort
to reform theological anthropology in a way that restores its
relevance to contemporary interpretations of the world and our
place in it.
