This book brings together contributions from scholars from Europe
and the United States to honor the theological work of Antje
Jackelen, the first female Archbishop of the Church of Sweden. In
Archbishop Antje Jackelen's installation homily, she identifies the
strength of the Church as a "global network of prayer threads."
This book is an honorary and celebratory volume providing a "global
network of prayerful essays" by contributors from a variety of
academic disciplines to creatively engage, reflect, and illuminate
the theological work of Archbishop Jackelen. Prior to her tenure in
the Church of Sweden as Bishop of the Diocese of Lund and now the
Archbishop of the Church of Sweden, Jackelen served as professor of
Systematic Theology, Director of the Zygon Center and President of
European Society for the Study of Science and Religion (ESSSAT).
While each essay intentionally embraces the theological and
ministerial work of Jackelen during her academic tenure, they also
venture into areas as diverse as climate change, media studies,
human uniqueness, hermeneutics, time, ethics, Christian theological
tradition and history, traumatology, politics and society. As the
first diverse explication of the theological thinking of Archbishop
Jackelen by her theological colleagues, this text provides scholars
with an expansion of the scope of Archbishop Jackelen's theological
thinking and initiates laity into the impact of Jackelen thinking
that combines with grace and precision the traditions of the
Church, the challenges and gifts of the sciences, and the needs and
longings of society and the world.
