Kingdom And The Power
$38.33
Jurgen Moltmann is arguably the most important German-speaking Protestant thinker since World War II. Recent publication of Experiences in Theology completes his six-volume “Contributions to Systematic Theology” and makes possible an informed and intelligent overview of this theological giant’s lifework. Muller-Fahrenholz traces Moltmann’s thought from its beginnings in his conversion experiences in a British POW camp and his decisive encounter with both the Holocaust and the cross, to his archimedean insights in Theology of Hope and The Crucified God. He then examines Moltmann’s turn to liberation theology in 1979 and the flowering of his thought in the systematic volumes since then. The Kingdom of the Power gets at “the theological passion on which Moltmann’s manifold and extensive work draws” and explains its chief themes: the future as a horizon of hope, the suffering God, the dynamics of Trinity, as well as its relation to recent German theology and its use of Reformation, Jewish, and other thought. This invaluable guide enables readers to appreciate the awesome systematic power of Motlmann’s vision and his relentless pursuit of divine knowledge and human flourishing.

7 Last Words
$18.99Based on his talks at New York’s St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Good Friday 2015, the New York Times bestselling author and editor at large of America magazine offers a portrait of Jesus, using his last words on the cross to reveal how deeply he understood our predicaments, what it means to be fully human, and why we can turn to Christ completely, in mind, heart, and soul.
Each meditation is dedicated to one of the seven sayings:
*”Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”
*”Today you will be with me in Paradise.”
*”Woman, this is your son” . . . “This is your mother.”?
*”My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”?
*”I thirst.”?
*”It is finished.”?
*”Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.”With the warmth, wisdom, and grace that infuse his works, Father James Martin explains why Jesus’s crucifixion and death on the cross is an important teaching moment in the Gospels. Jesus’s final statements, words that are deeply cherished by his followers, exemplify the depth of his suffering but also provide a key to his empathy and why we can connect with him so deeply.
