Conversion And Witnessing: Intercultural Renewal In A World Church, Peter Casarella

Peter J. Casarella

Witnessing is very closely connected to Christian conversion in the New Testament. For example, the legalistic connotations were not originally present. In order to uncover the genuine connection, we will examine: 1.) metanoia and martyria in the multiple Biblical witnesses, 2.) the myriad forms of Christian witnessing to beauty, justice, and truth in the 21st century, 3.) the unique testimony of Latino/a Theology, and 4.) the “Last Supper” of the monks of Tibhirine. Intercultural renewal and a renewed witness to the Gospel can be mutually strengthened by recognizing once again the original connection between conversion and witnessing.

Response To Stanley Hauerwas, "A Worldly Church", Peter J. Casarella

Peter J. Casarella

An excerpt from the response:

"Responding to a thinker with the originality of Stanley Hauerwas is no small feat, but the idea of engaging the Rahnerian side that he shares with the reader in the present essay presents me with an altogether new challenge. I would like to highlight this and other points in his essay, which took me by surprise and to respond to these surprising points by raising two questions that they bring to mind."

"'The Great Task Of The University': Reflections On The Regensburg Address Of Pope Benedict Xvi", Peter J. Casarella

Peter J. Casarella

Pope Benedict’s address at the University of Regensburg created a firestorm. But far from trying to incite controversy, the Pontiff outlined a cogent argument for intercultural dialogue. This essay examines the theology of dialogue in the address, including Benedict’s claims regarding the real basis for dialogue between Christians and Muslims, the violence implicit in certain forms of nominalism, and the practical foundations for dialogue in the modern university. By interweaving experiences with students at The Catholic University of America during the attacks of September 11, 2001, the author of the present essay proposes his own interpretation of the infamous speech. …

"Hti's Collaborations At Princeton And Beyond", Peter J. Casarella

Peter J. Casarella

From April 19-21, 2007, I had the distinct pleasure of accompanying HTI scholars Néstor Medina (Toronto School of Theology) and Jacqueline M. Hidalgo (Claremont Graduate University, California) to an international gathering of theologians as well as several influential religious journalists. The meeting took place at the Center of Theological Inquiry (CTI) in Princeton. HTI and CTI are neighbors, both located on the campus of Princeton Theological Seminary and separated only by Speer Library. Our journey across the street, so to speak, represents one of a few recent collaborative initiatives that have brought these two institutions closer together. It was also …
