Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The Problem and Promise of Freedom offers a public theology that challenges the church to be a holy, loving, and generous witness to a world bound by visions of self-absorbed autonomy and materialism."Felix-Jaeger has crafted a robust theology of the responsible church, which lives out a public theology that is rooted in God's covenant of abundance. His brilliant book is both a thesis and a manual for churches willing to be 'responsible' in today's controversial Western societies."--Nimi Wariboko, Boston University"Too often, we see our freedom in Christ as a kind of libertine Americanism where we can do whatever we want under the banner of empire. Thankfully, Felix-Jaeger has offered us a substantive alternative. To be free, it seems, is to be submitted to Christ. And this book paves a way forward to understand how that is more about freedom than anything a nation could ever construct on its own."--A. J. Swoboda, Bushnell University; author of The Gift of Thorns"This book rejects conservative Christianity's culture-war stance against secular liberalism and instead advances a vibrant Pentecostal public theology of renewal and abundance. Written with conceptual clarity, academic rigor, and fresh insights, this work makes a significant contribution to public theology."--Hak Joon Lee, Fuller Theological Seminary"This book argues persuasively that the church must resist the idols of the liberal tradition. Felix-Jaeger creates a distinctively Pentecostal public theology that combats the pervasive free-market ideology in the church with a counternarrative of abundance."--Wolfgang Vondey, University of Birmingham"Felix-Jaeger elaborates on the conceptions of liberty that have infiltrated the church in one of the most succinct and accessible summations available. Utilizing powerful biblical imagery, he highlights the contemporary challenge confronting public theology: discerning true worship and counterfeit worship as manifested in our economic and social lives."--Christopher Parkes, Hillsong College, Australi This item is printed on demand.
