Celebrating Life in Community

Résumé du livre

This text, engaging some of the finest scholars in Pentecostal and Evangelical studies, approaches several of the pastoral and academic dynamics that are dear to the thought and practice of Murray W. Dempster. Three overriding themes are addressed, that of biblical and theological studies, peacemaking and the Christian witness, and the nature and work of the church in the broader community. The role of social ethics, the overriding interest of Dempster's scholarship, is either in the forefront or background of each writing. That the text may be used in studies of Christian formation, a set of discussion questions is provided with each article.
