The Way of the Kenotic Christ


Book Description

Despite his vast importance to twentieth-century theology, Jürgen Moltmann’s Christology has yet to receive the same level of in-depth exploration as other topics in his thought. Samuel Youngs addresses this lacuna, providing the first exhaustive analysis of Moltmann’s doctrine of Christ, including its key developments and controversial elements. Youngs argues that Moltmann’s doctrine of Christ is best understood as a unique variation of kenotic Christology. This vision of Christ encapsulates not only a series of vibrant ethical and eschatological points, but also serves Moltmann’s overarching theological goal of empowering a church that lives and ministers “under the cross.” Part I highlights key facets of Moltmann’s theological method before unfolding the range of diverse themes that characterize his Christology. Part II explores Moltmann’s use of the “kenosis hymn” of Philippians 2, before interrogating Moltmann’s relationship to christological tradition. Part III engages in an original systematization of Moltmann’s Christology, centered on the theme of manifold, relational kenosis.




The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy and Europe


Book Description

Understood historically, culturally, politically, geographically, or philosophically, the idea of Europe and notion of European identity conjure up as much controversy as consensus. The mapping of the relation between ideas of Europe and their philosophical articulation and contestation has never benefitted from clear boundaries, and if it is to retain its relevance to the challenges now facing the world, it must become an evolving conceptual landscape of critical reflection. The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy and Europe provides an outstanding reference work for the exploration of Europe in its manifold conceptions, narratives, institutions, and values. Comprising twenty-seven chapters by a group of international contributors, the Handbook is divided into three parts: Europe of the philosophers Concepts and controversies Debates and horizons. Essential reading for students and researchers in philosophy, politics, and European studies, the Handbook will also be of interest to those in related disciplines such as sociology, religion, and European history and history of ideas.




The Tides of Eternity

This is the tale of the last days of Erus-the original earth-the world that was, and the life that was, before the Rebellion brought evil and the Great Collapse. Come hear a telling of an olden time; a time of myth, magic and miracles, when faithful hearts found triumph over tragedy. Join the young prophetess Gailel-servant of the One Most High-along with her faithful confidant Maid Kimia, as they struggle, flee and fight against the forces of the heinous lord Daemen den Moc and his wicked blood magician, Rulik Suu. The prize? Nothing less than the everlasting souls of the Yune, Elves and humankind of the first earth-and the very life and liberty of Gailel's only son, the young Tylen, whom Daemen believes to be the prophesied Iylon Sor, the most powerful magician to ever live.
