This book describes Reformed ecclesiology through the lived faith
of the Filipino American Christian diaspora. It proposes a
contextual, constructive ecclesiology by engaging with the
Presbyterian/Reformed theological tradition's understanding of the
ascension of Jesus Christ with the Old Testament book of Habakkuk
as a conversation partner.
This book is a collection of fifty-two devotions based on the
Heidelberg Catechism, one of the foundational documents of the
Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). Former PC(USA) moderator Neal D.
Presa begins each devotion with a few of the questions from the
catechism, along with their Scripture references, and follows with
a brief meditation on those questions. Presa's reflections tie the
catechism questions to daily life in contemporary America, helping
readers find meaning and relevance for their own lives. Our Only
Comfort is a helpful resource for those interested in learning more
about their Reformed heritage and how they can apply it to their
daily lives.
To mark the historic 2010 union of two Reformed bodies of
churches--the World Alliance of Refored Churches and the Reformed
Ecumenical council--more than twenty-five revered pastors,
theologians, and ecumenists contributed essays for this volume.
These writings celebrate what it means to live in unity and
communion in the twenty-first century and stress the importance of
ecumenism in working for mission and justice.
Among the many noted contributors are Jane Dempsey Douglass,
Michael Kinnamon, Samuel Kobia, Setri Nyomi, Ofelia Ortega, Gradye
Parsons, and Iain Torrance.
