Redemptive Transformation in Practical Theology
Essays in Honor of James E Loder JR
Description
This volume represents the first major attempt to elaborate and engage the late James E. Loder's programmatic work in practical theology. Thirteen able scholars here explore how Loder's profound theological motif of “redemptive transformation” relates directly to issues of fundamental importance to contemporary church life. The first six essays examine core practices of the church, including baptism, communion, preaching, biblical interpretation, leadership, and youth ministry. The next five essays focus more broadly on the meaning and shape of practical theology to discern and to give order to the relation of divine action to human action revealed in Christ. The last three essays bring Loder's work into dialogue with philosophy and mystical theology. Also included are a Loder biography and bibliography. A fitting tribute to a remarkable scholar and human being, this volume initiates a dynamic new approach to practical theology that will continue for years to come.Contributors:
