Beskrivning

Faced with the widespread and radical forgetting of Christian tradition, this work models a renewed theological practice for teachers in line with Pope Francis’ repeated calls for a dialogical theology: recontextualization. Recontextualization is not about reading into the text what we want to hear. Instead, it is about engaging in a repeated process of meaning-making in order to listen to the way God continues to reveal Godself through the text in new contexts and in new times. Engaging with seven challenging biblical accounts, the book shows how these texts can open onto significant issues in contemporary culture and the Church.

Recensioner i media

This is a fascinating and highly readable book. The theological background, namely that Christian tradition develops through recontextualisation and that we are therefore also called upon today to recontextualise that tradition ourselves, is introduced by the authors in a very understandable way. The choice of biblical texts in combination with the thematic organisation of the chapters is highly original and challenges us to reflect on bodiliness and shame, anger at injustice, mental well-being, sexual and power abuse and disaffiliation from the church.
