Theology

With feminism grafted on to Christianity, how will the Church continue its growth? In a series of essays that reflect on the phenomenon of religion, Gail Ramshaw proposes a way of Christian belief, worship and ethics that grows out of the Bible, Christian tradition, and feminist consciousness.

Takes into account the diversity of Christianity, notably the division between the Orthodox East and the Catholic West, the Reformation and its consequences; the flow out from Europe with empires and the development from corporate 'tribal' religion to religion as a matter of individual choice.

Acclaimed writer and pastor Timothy Keller grapples with the age-old question: how do we deal with pain and suffering, both in our own lives and in the world around us?

Virtually no one would deny the extent and intensity of suffering in the world. Can one also consistently hold that there is an omniscient, omnipotent, perfectly good God? In Wandering in Darkness, Eleonore Stump argues that the difficult questions raised by the problem of suffering can be considered best in the context of biblical narratives.
