Contextual Theology and Revolutionary Transformation in Latin America
U.S. audiences know Latin American liberation theologies largely through translations of Latin American Catholics from the 1970s and beyond. Most of the few known Protestant authors were students of Richard Shaull, whose critical thinking on social change, prophetic Christianity, and dialogue with Marxism and Christian use of Marxist analysis precedes the emergence of the formal schools of liberation theology by two decades. His own education at Princeton, and the education he provided in Brazil, charts the course of Protestant influences into this stream of theological reflection that became a global phenomenon in the latter decades of the twentieth century. Also, Shaull's career roughly pa...
The Presbyterian Mission Enterprise
American Presbyterians have a remarkable heritage of foreign mission work. While today the mission and ministry of the Presbyterian Church and all of mainline Protestantism is in a time of reformation and deep change, it is vital to remember this heritage of world mission. The Presbyterian Mission Enterprise tells this story by highlighting significant mission leaders through the ages.

In all these settings and more, friendship has mattered. Boundary-crossing friendships are, however, not easy. Despite their powe...

Edifício educacional protestante
Ao completar os cem anos de existência em 12 de agosto de 1959, o Supremo Concílio da Igreja Presbiteriana do Brasil criou o Seminário Teológico Presbiteriano do Centenário – SPC, para atender a região de Minas e Espírito Santo, que precisava de ser evangelizada e ensinada. O SPC se instalou definitivamente em Vitória, ES. A IPB, na década de 1960, viveu momentos de crescimento e celebração, mas também de influências externas de ideologias liberais e comunismo. No SPC, alunos e professores mancomunados cumpriam deveres de ensino e aprendizagem tendo como espinho dorsal da vida cristã as Sagradas Escrituras e uma Teologia Reformada que eram transmitidas às igrejas locais. O p...
