Children's voices
The third meeting of the European network of children’s theology took place in April 2013 in Trondheim, Norway. Sturla Sagberg organised this meeting with great care and commitment, and intended to publish the contributions to the conference in a book to make them accessible to the wider public. The approach of children’s theology has been specified and differentiated over the course of the last ten years. This book provides insight into the process and results of different European and North American research projects. As the practice of children’s theology is linked to the “great questions”, which are equally raised by children’s philosophy, the range of topics of both the conference and this book are marked by the terms children’s theology, children’s philosophy and spirituality.
Issues in Spiritual Formation in Early Lifespan Contexts
This book focuses on the question of how different contexts are relevant in the shaping and expression of individual spirituality spanning from early childhood to young adulthood. Past decades have witnessed a strong expansion of research on spirituality and spiritual education. This expansion has proved to have many advantages in understanding the experiences, values, identities and behaviours of individuals and communities. Such research has benefitted from different research disciplines and methods, from its openness toward different faith traditions and non-religious belief systems, and from the agility in adapting to diverse and evolving contexts. These aspects are essential in producin...
Inclusive Religious Education
To what extent is diversity perceived and recognized as a resource in contemporary religious education in schools and congregations? What happens with children and their teachers when classrooms shift into inclusive learning communities, where all are invited to learn from their abilities and vulnerabilities? This book offers theoretical and empirical insights into the complex domain of inclusive religious education. It brings together scholars working on the intersection of theological, educational, and disability studies.

With all senses: Something for body and mind
Even though educators and religious leaders know that early childhood formation is utterly crucial, ritual activities among children are rarely studied, therefore poorly understood. It is no wonder, then, that adult rituals, including those designed by supposed professionals, are in such a mess. Kim de Wildt’s “With All the Senses” makes an admirable start at cleaning up the mess. Since her determination matches her candor, readers will find this book both challenging and playful. Ronald L. Grimes, Ritual Studies International

The Political Theology of Paul Tillich
The Political Theology of Paul Tillich explores the political theology of one of the foremost thinkers of the 20th century, Paul Tillich, whose life and scholarship were decisively shaped by his experiences during World War I, his resistance to the rising scourge of Nazism in Germany, and his subsequent immigration to the United States. Tillich’s discerning analysis of fascism, grounded in his socialist commitments, and his continuing efforts to write theology in correlation with culture, make his voice a crucial one for contemporary political theology. The contributors to this volume represent different generations, social and cultural locations, and nationalities Together, they explore Tillich’s early work on religious socialism and its lingering presence in his later systematic theology, bring him into dialogue with liberation theologies, apply his thought to contemporary political concerns, and show the significance of his method of correlation for theological scholarship that engages culture, thereby presenting a case for the continued relevance of Tillich for political theology.
Inklusion verstehen
Die Verankerung von Inklusion als Querschnittsthema lehramtsbezogener Studiengänge fordert zu einer interdisziplinären Verständigung über die Vorstellung inklusiver Unterrichtsgestaltung heraus. Die Forscher:innengruppe der Universität Paderborn wählt hierfür als methodischen Ausgangspunkt Vignetten als verdichtete Fallbeispiele aus der Unterrichtspraxis, die aus verschiedenen fachübergreifenden praxistheoretischen Perspektiven gelesen und so gemeinsam diskutiert werden. In der Linie praxistheoretischer Arbeiten wird das Buch Praktiken im inklusiven Fachunterricht in der Spannung zu den normativen (sonder)pädagogischen bzw. (fach)didaktischen Vorannahmen reflektieren, um aus dieser Reflexion eigenes verantwortetes Handeln zu entwickeln. Die Vignettenbündel laden so zum diskursiven Austausch, zur Kontrastierung oder zum "Einfangen" selbst erlebter Unterrichtspraxen auf dem Weg des Verstehens von Inklusion in Theorie und Praxis ein.
"He! Ich habe viel Stress! Ich hasse alles"
Ist Kindertheologie nur etwas für Kinder aus dem bildungs-bürgerlichen Milieu? Dieser Frage bzw. diesem Vorwurf will das vorliegende Jahrbuch nachgehen. Es zeigt sich, dass es dazu gewichtige Überlegungen gibt, der Weg der Erschließung dieses Feldes aber mühselig ist. Gleichwohl bietet das Jahrbuch erste überzeugende Einblicke und zeigt, dass es sich lohnt das Theologisieren gerade auch mit solchen Kindern zu praktizieren, denen dies zunächst nicht leicht fällt.
