Martin Bucer (1491–1551)
This present volume aims to stimulate Bucer-research as it brings together a selection of the best of De Kroon's and Van't Spijker's articles some of which appear for the first time in English translation. In the first section Bucer is described as taking his independent stand in the patristic and scholastic tradition. The next five articles go into the close personal and theological relation between Bucer and John Calvin and make clear how much of Bucer works through in Calvin and Calvinism. Bucer's efforts to bridge theological and ecclesiastical gaps brought him often in discussion with catholic as well as protestant theologians. How he dealt with this is the topic of the third section in this volume. The two following articles deal with his view on discipline and on the right of resistance. The next articles deal with Bucer's doctrinal legacy and the last section focuses on sanctification as one of the most important characteristics of his theology.The most important issues of contemporary Bucer-research and the outlines of his theology are convincingly presented in this volume by known experts for this topic.

Duurzame duurzaamheid
In de hedendaagse duurzaamheidsdiscussie gaat het veel over Sustainable Development Goals, ‘People, Planet, Prosperity’ en klimaat en CO2-reductie, maar weinig over hoe je duurzaamheid zelf duurzaam maakt, dat wil zeggen blijvend verankerd in het gedrag van mensen. Uitgangspunt van deze bundel, die zich vooral richt op ecologische ethiek en morele motivatie, is dat de individuele mens de komende jaren een omslag gaat maken ‘from satisfactions to value’, van het nalopen van eigenbelang naar de inzet voor zaken van gedeelde waarde. Deze ethische omslag, die begint met de vraag ‘waar ben ik nu helemaal mee bezig?’, kan op diverse manieren plaatsvinden: van binnenuit (inzicht en over...
Kirche ohne Moral?
Was kann Kirche noch sein? Die katholische Kirche hat angesichts des Missbrauchsskandals ihre moralische Glaubwürdigkeit eingebüßt. Doch schon viel länger verlieren Religion und Glaube in unserer Gesellschaft an Bedeutung. In einer Zeit materiellen Wohlstands ist der Mensch schwer zu erreichen. Die Kirche ist nur eines von vielen Angeboten der Sinngebung. Was aber wären wir ohne die Kirche? Geraten nicht ohne sie moralische Grundwerte unseres Lebens in Vergessenheit? Was kann sie trotz allem dem Menschen heute bieten? Peter Schallenberg hinterfragt eine der wichtigsten Aufgaben der Kirche: Welchen Werten will sie künftig Ausdruck verleihen? Kenntnisreich und offen erklärt er, was die Kirche dem Menschen bieten kann, und worauf es beim Glauben an Christus wirklich ankommt.
