The Reformed tradition in the twenty-first century is increasingly
diverse, dynamic, and deeply engaged in a wide variety of global
and public issues, from the arts and business to immigration and
race to poetry and politics. This book brings together the insights
of a diverse group of leading Reformed thinkers--including Nicholas
Wolterstorff, Makoto Fujimura, Bruce Ashford, John Witvliet, Ruben
Rosario Rodriguez, and James K. A. Smith--to offer a contemporary
vision of the depth and diversity of the Reformed faith and its
global public impact.
The modern chasm between "secular" work and "sacred" worship has
had a devastating impact on Western Christianity. Drawing on years
of research, ministry, and leadership experience, Kaemingk and
Willson explain why Sunday morning worship and Monday morning work
desperately need to inform and impact one another. Together they
engage in a rich biblical, theological, and historical exploration
of the deep and life-giving connections between labor and liturgy.
In so doing, Kaemingk and Willson offer new ways in which Christian
communities can live seamless lives of work and worship.
An alternative, uniquely Christian response to the growing global
challenges of deep religious difference. In the last fifty years,
millions of Muslims have migrated to Europe and North America.
Their arrival has ignited a series of fierce public debates on both
sides of the Atlantic about religious freedom and tolerance,
terrorism and security, gender and race, and much more. How can
Christians best respond to this situation? In this book theologian
and ethicist Matthew Kaemingk offers a thought-provoking Christian
perspective on the growing debates over Muslim presence in the
West. Rejecting both fearful nationalism and romantic
multiculturalism, Kaemingk makes the case for a third way-a
Christian pluralism that is committed to both the historic
Christian faith and the public rights, dignity, and freedom of
Islam.
