Saints of Feather and Fang (eBook, ePUB)

From sheepdogs to wombats to coyotes to jellyfish, animals serve important biological roles in the world. But those who love animals know there's more. We know our connection to other creatures is more than fur, scale, or feather deep.In Saints of Feather and Fang, writer and lifelong animal lover Caryn Rivadeneira looks at the ways that animals--from the pets who share our homes to the mysterious creatures of the deep--serve as spiritual guides for our hearts, minds, and souls.Christian scripture teems with mammals, birds, and reptiles, and research on animals' sensory responses suggests that we not only care for our beloved animals but they, at times, care for us. A therapy pony who visits stroke victims, a rescued pit bull who shows restraint, hedgehogs that scurry down highways made just for them: these stories offer entrée to tender, whimsical, and deeply theological reflection on creaturely delight, instinct, curiosity, adaptation, fear, and awe. In them we discover and connect with the God who beckons, rescues, and shelters us with stretched-out wings.

Der bestmögliche Mensch (eBook, PDF)

Perfektibilität, ab dem 18. Jahrhundert in Philosophie und Pädagogik konzeptionell und nicht allein auf Individuen angewandt, prägt schon in der Vormoderne das Denken zu Mensch und Gott. Mit den Fragen und Problemen der Perfektion und Perfektibilität stehen traditions- und religionsgeschichtliche Konzeptionen und zugleich fundamentale theologische Fragen nach der Unterscheidung zwischen dem Vermögen Gottes und dem des Menschen, nach Integrität und Schuld sowie nach geschöpflichem Diesseits und vollkommenem Jenseits zur Debatte. Der Band geht einer Auswahl von Fragen in verschiedenen Literaturbereichen des Alten Testaments nach. [The Best Possible Person. Old Testament and Systematic Theological Notes on Sin and Reversion] In the 18th century perfectibility became a concept in philosophy and pedagogy and has been applied not alone to individuals but also on societies. Already in pre-modernist times perfection and perfectibility shaped thinking about human and God. With these questions and problems that arise with perfection and perfectibility thinking tradition- and religion-history, conceptions are in question. Also fundamental theological questions have to be answered new: the distinction between God and human, integrity and sin as well as the creaturely world and perfect hereafter. The volume explores a selection of these questions in various literature areas of the Old Testament.
