What happens when Edward Schillebeeckx’s theology crosses paths with contemporary public theology? This volume examines the theological heritage that Schillebeeckx has left behind, as well as it critically assesses its relevance for temporary theological scene. In tracing the way(s) in which Schillebeeckx observed and examined his own context’s increasing secularization and concomitant development toward atheism, the contributors to this volume indicate the potential directions for a contemporary public theology that pursues the path which Schillebeeckx has trodden. The essays in the first part of this volume indicate a different theological self-critique undertaken in response to developments in the public sphere. This is followed by a thorough examination of the degree to which Schillebeeckx succeeded in leading Christian theology ahead without merely accommodating the Christian tradition to current societal trends. The third part of the volume discusses the issues of climate change, social conceptions of progress, as well as the evolutionary understandings of the origins and purpose of religions. The final part examines Schillebeeckx’s soteriology to contemporary discussions about wholeness.

The young scholars in this important volume make it very obvious how Schillebeeckx’ work helps them to engage theologically with contemporary issues, and thus are witness to the ongoing relevance of two of his core convictions. Firstly, that the God the Christian tradition remembers is the God active in the present, regardless of whether contemporary culture considers itself as secular. Secondly, that this makes theology both critical of its current context and self-critical.
