The Future of Theology: Essays in Honor of Jürgen Moltmann
Overview
The essays in this volume attempt to revitalize theology as it confronts a difficult future. Despite the formidable obstacles that threaten the very survival of theology in the next century—religious and cultural plurality; the marginalization of theology in public discourse; increasing abstraction in the practice of theology; pressing issues of gender, race, poverty, and ecology; the seemingly archaic voice of theology in post-Christian societies—the contributors to this volume all believe in the future of theology as a vibrant discipline. The Future of Theology is organized in three parts. “Challenges” deals with the external or internal problems that theology is facing. “Perspectives” offers proposals on how to meet the challenges. “Themes” concentrates on various issues that need special attention today. Together, these essays succeed in setting the theological agenda for the future of theology, and thereby serve as a fitting tribute to this volume’s esteemed honoree.
