A Transnational Faith: El Salvador And Immigrant Christianity, Robert A. Danielson 2011 Asbury Theological Seminary

A Transnational Faith: El Salvador And Immigrant Christianity, Robert A. Danielson

The Asbury Journal

Immigration is radically shaping the makeup of the United States; however immigration today is radically different than in previous generations. Modern immigration is characterized by transnationalism, where more immigrants are maintaining connections with their homelands. These connections have both positive and negative impacts on both the United States and the immigrant's countries of origin. El Salvador is one example of this trend. Financial remittances and gangs are representative of the way transnational migration affects a country of origin, like El Salvador, as well as the United States. The Church needs to adapt to this global trend and recognize its impact …


A Theology Of Church Planting, Phil Stevenson 2011 The Wesleyan Church

A Theology Of Church Planting, Phil Stevenson

Great Commission Research Journal

Does church planting need a theology of its own? Or is it enough for it to be informed by theological themes? This paper will attempt to address this conversation. It will show that, even though, church planting may fall outside the realm of traditional theology it is still a branch off the theological trunk. Church planting is an implementation of theological teaching. There are four theological foundations that inform the practice of church planting. They are critical for church planting reflection and framing. These are: Missio Dei, Incarnation, Kingdom of God, and Ecclesiology. Each of this will be explored and …

Solidarity, Subsidiarity, And Preference For The Poor: Extending Catholic Social Teaching In Response To The Climate Crisis, Jame Schaefer 2011 Marquette University

Solidarity, Subsidiarity, And Preference For The Poor: Extending Catholic Social Teaching In Response To The Climate Crisis, Jame Schaefer

Theology Faculty Research and Publications

Grounding Catholic social thought is the belief that each human person has an intrinsic dignity and a desire for relationships with others that should lead to cooperating for their mutual good, making decisions individually and collectively to achieve it, and showing preference for the poor, vulnerable, and suffering in decision-making and actions. Rooted in the sacred scriptures, reflected upon at least implicitly for centuries by theologians, and taught by bishops of the Roman Catholic Church (the magisterium), principles to guide our decisionmaking and actions began to be considered collectively toward the end of the 19th century as “Catholic social teaching” …


Malcolm X And The Limits Of 'Authentically Black And Truly Catholic:' A Research Project In Black Radicalism And Black Catholic Faith, Bryan Massingale 2011 Marquette University

Malcolm X And The Limits Of 'Authentically Black And Truly Catholic:' A Research Project In Black Radicalism And Black Catholic Faith, Bryan Massingale

Theology Faculty Research and Publications

Based on the talk he delivered during the 2010 Annual Meeting, Massingale here tackles head-on the unvoiced questions with which most of us have struggled at some point in our careers and ministries. He begins by unveiling the conflicted ramifications of ‘authentically black and truly Catholic’. Echoing Copeland’s reference in Volume IV to the price that black scholars and theologians must pay to “speak and act and live in truth” (p. 75), Massingale explores Malcolm X’s call for Black Nationalism and its synthesis and coexistence with Integrationism in current Black Catholicism. Finally, he asks a series of haunting questions about …

The Last Shall Be First: Human Potential In Genetic And Theological Perspectives, M. Therese Lysaught 2011 Marquette University

The Last Shall Be First: Human Potential In Genetic And Theological Perspectives, M. Therese Lysaught

Theology Faculty Research and Publications

The notion of “human potential” provides a fruitful window through which to explore the competing conceptual frameworks of contemporary genetics and Christianity. The contemporary cultural frame of genetics conceives of human potential in a broadly positive manner: the source of personal and societal flourishing is located within individual bodies, waiting to be identified and unleashed by genetic science and medicine for the good of persons and society. In the Judeo-Christian narrative, human individual, biological potential is far less relevant—and, in fact, may be construed as an impediment to the achievement of personal and social flourishing. Implications for the dialogue between …
