How the Light Gets In: Ethical Life I presents a systematic account
of the teachings of the Christian faith to offer a vision, from a
human, created, and limited perspective, of the ways all things
might be understood from the divine perspective. It explores how
Christian doctrine is lived, and the way in which beliefs are not
simply cognitive sets of ideas but embodied cultural practices.
Christians learn how to understand the contents of their faith,
learn the language of the faith, through engagements that are
simultaneously somatic, affective, imaginative, and intellectual.
In the first of four volumes, Graham Ward examines the complex
levels of these engagements through three historical developments
in the systematic organization of doctrine: the Creeds, the Summa,
and Protestant dogmatics. He outlines a methodology for exploring
and practicing systematic theology that captures how the faith is
lived in cultural, social, and embodied engagements. Ward then
unpicks several fundamental theological concepts and how they are
to be understood from the point of view of an engaged systematics:
truth, revelation, judgement, discernment, proclamation, faith
seeking understanding, and believing as it relates to and grounds
the possibilities for faith. This groundbreaking work offers an
interdisciplinary investigation through poetry, art, film, the
Bible and theological discourse, analysing the human condition and
theology as the deep dream for salvation. The final part relates
theology as a lived and ongoing pedagogy concerned with individual
and corporate formation to biological life, social life, and life
in Christ. Here an approach to living theologically is sketched
that is the primary focus for all four volumes: ethical life.
