Theology

In his new book Outgrowing God, Richard Dawkins purports to demolish the claims of mainstream religion, starting with belief in a Creator. All of life's big questions can apparently be answered by science.

Drawing on recent research, this book provides a psychological perspective on key aspects of human nature and behaviour and reflects on the issues this raises for theology and ministry.

This short book is a reflection on life as an intentional Christian community, written by Bonhoeffer during his time as a head of the Illegal Seminary of the Confessing Church in Finkenwalde (Eastern Prussia).

Perhaps Dietrich Bonhoeffer's most radical book, this reading of the Sermon on the Mount has influenced many Christians throughout the world over the last 50 years.

"Straw for the Bricks" explores theological reflection as a tool for ministerial training and development. The book offers a new resource for theological conversation and breaks new ground in exploring how a model of conversation can be used to lay a foundation for learning for both academic curriculum and personal formation.

One of the great classics of prison literature, this effectively serves as the last will and testament of the theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, executed by the Nazis after incarceration in prison. Acute and subtle, warm and perceptive, yet also profoundly moving, the documents collectively tell a very human story of loss, of courage, and of hope.

Marking the centenary of the end of the First World War, The Hardest Part offers a profoundly moving theology from within the trenches and offers for the first time, a new edition of a book by arguably the most famous 1st World War Army Chaplain, Studdert Kennedy, known as 'Woodbine Willie'.

This studyguide offers newcomers a step by step introduction to understanding what theological reflection is and helps them to explore which of the methods introduced best suits them and their particular situation. Practical in emphasis, it provides students with a wide variety of worked examples and opportunities to carry out their own exercises.

Confronting Religious Violence begins with the premise that violence committed in God's name is always an act of desecration. A range of contributors come together to consider how a re-reading of the hallowed texts of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam might mitigate the militancy whereby group identity can lead to deadly conflict.
