Forgiveness is at the heart of the Christian Gospel. It goes hand
in hand with love, mercy, and grace, the fundamental theological
virtues. However, forgiveness is easier to define than it is to
embody. This unique collection of essays brings together
theologians, ethicists, and ministry practitioners into a
constructive dialog which explores the complex and crucial concept
of forgiveness: what it is, where it is to be found, and how it
might be practiced. These essays reflect the perspectives of those
from various traditions who nonetheless take the Christian
Scriptures seriously, believe that forgiveness is central to living
out the Gospel, and are creative in the ways in which forgiveness
can be practiced. Forgiveness is an art and not simply a science;
as such it requires trust, skill, and hope alongside love, mercy,
and grace if it is to be embodied. This volume offers a unique
window into the art of forgiveness and the faithful and innovative
ways in which it is to be understood, embodied, and cultivated.
The twenty-first century has seen energy passing between religious
and political worldviews, kicking up dust around the identity- and
conviction-based fault lines in American society. While many
evangelical Christians have developed and deployed a "worldview
theory" to describe and locate themselves within the world's
ideological strife, Jacob Cook argues this approach has, in effect,
compelled those listening to adopt the world's divisive modes of
dealing with difference rather than living out a compelling
alternative. As a popular framework for theology in recent history,
world-viewing has driven its white evangelical adherents to narrate
human lives in this world (including their own) in ways that warp
Christian identity as a personal, social, and theological reality.
Through close studies of key white evangelical leaders who utilized
the worldview concept for political engagement and cultural
transformation over the last century, Cook reveals why worldview
theory is inept for grasping real human complexity and, moreover,
how it forms a barrier to genuine life together as creatures in a
world only the living God can really "view." In between these
studies, he draws from current conversations in psychology,
sociology, critical race studies, and other fields to deliver a
vigorous critique of the worldview concept and its use as well as
its underlying impulse-and to unmask what world-viewing shares with
the history and spirit of whiteness. This book is for those
wrestling with the relationship between Christianity and whiteness
in America, how the dynamics of whiteness have become transparent
and, thus, contentions, and where to go from here if one is to
follow Jesus.
