How Would We Know What God is Up To?
This second volume in the series on "An Earthed Faith" will address the following question: "Given what we know about the Anthropocene, how does one even begin to answer the question: What is this God up to, and how ought humans respond?” This is a question of theological method, including the sources and interlocutors of Christian theology, its aims and starting points, social theories shaping it, and presuppositions grounding it. Addressing this question is the classic task of doing contextual theology, namely describing and analysing a particular context and considering how this context may best be addressed theologically and practically. The question highlights the need for prophetic theology to discern the “signs of the time”, to recognise a “moment of truth” (Kairos) and to discern counter-movements of the Spirit. The question of method opens the door to constructive critique of how theology has been done and should be done.

Teología Pop
La teología del siglo XXI se ve en la titánica tarea de establecer una mediación entre sus certezas fundacionales y las frenéticas experiencias que nos rodean. Como cada generación cristiana a lo largo de la historia, nos vemos ante el desafío de volver a representar -en un escenario nuevo y ante desafíos desconocidos- la antigua historia de la salvación. Teología Pop es el fruto de las búsquedas y los hallazgos de una generación ecléctica, curiosa, hiperconectada. Recupera la polifonía de voces jóvenes que brotan desde los rincones de toda Iberoamérica: 21 ensayos que hablan desde y hacia el siglo XXI. Es un testimonio de la fe de una generación que se siente a gusto por igual entre textos milenarios y pantallas táctiles. La reflexión teológica -escrita por las nuevas generaciones, desde el Sur global y en nuestra propia lengua-está vivita y coleando. Por ser un libro firmado por muchas manos, conviven aquí todo tipo de miradas y preguntas. Esa multiplicidad es el reconocimiento de que el Espíritu sopla donde quiere (y la Iglesia no puede prescindir de esa gracia multiforme).
Theologies and Practices of Inclusion
Inclusion has recently become a high priority issue within the development sector, brought to the fore by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development's commitment to leave no one behind. Practices within the remit of inclusion often focus on increasing access and meaningful participation, with emphasis placed on bringing those at the margins to the centre. Theologies and Practices of Inclusion challenges such centre-focused practices from a global perspective, based on research conducted within the Christian relief, development and advocacy organisation Tearfund and beyond. Offering inspiration for practitioners within the sector and faith-based organisations in particular, as well as an ...

Saying Yes to Life
'Ruth Valerio’s book is perfect for individuals and groups to think, reflect, pray and be challenged together.' JUSTIN WELBY, from the Foreword Saying Yes to Life lifts our focus from natural, everyday concerns to issues that are having an impact on millions of lives around the world. As people made in the image of God, we are entrusted to look after what he has created: to share in God’s joy and ingenuity in making a difference for good. Ruth Valerio imaginatively draws on the Days of Creation (Genesis 1) as she relates themes of light, water, land, the seasons, other creatures, humankind, Sabbath rest and resurrection hope to matters of environmental, ethical and social concern.

Jubilee
What is Jubilee? How could it transform our understanding of the world today -- and of how God calls us to live in it? At the heart of Old Testament law is a revolutionary concept that, if applied today, could transform our economy and world. Jesus himself claimed that his ministry would bring its fulfilment, transforming the world. Uniting social justice, creation care, equality and worship, jubilee remains a radical challenge, thousands of years later. This exciting collection engages with this challenge and offers ideas and inspiration for disciples today. It brings together rigorous theological thought and practical experience from voices from around the world. Its chapters reflect on issues of poverty in its different dimensions and discuss some of the challenges that face churches, Christian organisations and individual Christians in responding to them. The authors each bring their unique context and perspectives which challenge us to go beyond viewing the jubilee ordinances as simple rules and help us to begin to understand the redemptive and restorative power of the jubilee principles for us today.
