For both Maximus the Confessor (c. 580-662) and Jurgen Moltmann (b.
1926) understanding what it means to be human springs from a
contemplative vision of God. This comparative study explores
surprising parallels between the theological anthropology of the
seventh-century Byzantine monk and the contemporary German
Protestant. Bingaman shows that Maximus and Moltmann root their
understanding of the human calling in their Trinitarian and
christological reflection, in contrast to many modern theologies
that tend to devise an account of human being first, and then try
to find ways in which Christ and the Trinity are somehow relevant
to this human being. In this constructive work, Bingaman
demonstrates the intrinsic connection between Maximus and
Moltmann's views of human being, Christ and the Trinity, the
church, and the human calling in creation. Illustrating the
richness of these ancient and postmodern theologies in
conversation, 'All Things New' lays out future trajectories in
theological anthropology, patristic ressourcement, ecologically
attuned theology and spirituality, and Orthodox-Protestant
dialogue.
