The Student Christian Movement was one of the most influential movements in the 20th century. This book tells the story of 'the SCM tradition' as it began and developed, as it suffered division, struggle and perhaps went astray, and as it has sought to rediscover its roots, as it faces the future in hope.

Christ Of The Everyday

Christ Of The Everyday

Spck

SPCK Publishing
2007
nidottu
"Christ of the Everyday" seeks to help us discover the true meaning of the way of Jesus. Two convictions permeate the text. The first is that to be converted is, in the end, not so much a matter of seeing different things as of seeing the same things differently; and that 'having the eyes of faith', in this sense, is a major component of being a person of faith. The second conviction is that most religious insight is something that happens, if it happens at all, in the midst of the ordinary experiences of life - including our experiences of solitude, suffering, friendship and joy. It is in and from such locations that Christians develop their perspective on Jesus.

Creative Love In Tough Times

Creative Love In Tough Times

Spck

SPCK Publishing
2007

The problem of evil and suffering is a black hole for many of us. It is difficult - even impossible - to pray to a God of love in the presence of so much pain. And the Church is not always helpful. Perhaps, Andrew Clitherow suggests in this prophetic book, it is time to lose the version of Christianity that Western consumerism has produced, and to find a new way. Using insights from evolutionary theory, socio-biology and theology, he offers an accessible Christian spirituality which, centred in creative love, becomes a way of life. 'The history of the world is the history of the progress of love at the expense of evil.' In this exhilarating account of love's progress, "Creative Love in Tough Times" calls us to rediscover the Christian faith and to own it for ourselves.

Theological and sociological insights about childhood provide the framework for this book about the care and teaching of children within the church. Little has been written about the child using theological insights, but there is a growing literature on understanding the child in Psychology, Sociology and History. This book will make much of this knowledge relevant to the pastoral task of clergy and ministers.

Abundantly illustrated with stories, this book investigates how true and radical trust can transform everything in our lives. No matter where we are on our path of discipleship, Manning encourages us to shed the limitations of fear, shame and doubt through complete reliance upon God. The way of Ruthless Trust is not an abstract theory; it is that very practical and demanding path that each of us must follow in response to God's love.

nidottu
"Theology in the Context of Science" is a new work by John Polkinghorne. It explores the ever popular debate of science in religion. Here, Polkinghorne examines how science, rather than debunking theological thoughts and ideals, can support and reinforce the Christian values we hold dear. Polkinghorne continues to insist that science and religion can be complementary - one does not disprove the other, rather they are two ways to look at the really big questions.

What is our identity in God's eyes? It is a form of passionate commitment to embracing the gift of our uniqueness, while allowing that uniqueness to dissolve and give way to something greater. In turn, that something greater will give new meaning to our uniqueness. So it goes on in a constant circle, the gift of our identity connecting us ever more closely with one another and with God. In this inspiring book, Alison Webster explores what it means to be human: she looks at relationships, power, disadvantage in the face of dominant ideas of normality, faith and the way we encounter God, and how we grow and change.

Desert Mothers

Desert Mothers

Spck

SPCK Publishing
2007
nidottu
At the dawn of Christianity, holy women went into the deserts of northern Egypt to give themselves totally to lives of prayer. Today, we are gradually discovering more about these desert mothers: they were teachers, they were spiritual guides and sometimes they were leaders of monastic communities. The sayings and stories that come from these sages speak to us compellingly about living the Great Commandment. They never forget that love of God, love of neighbour and love of self are patiently knit together by daily practice. Their advice is down-to-earth, blunt, and savvy. The lives of these desert mothers, while often seeming strange and completely at odds with the lives of women today, challenge and subvert many of the cultural norms that hinder spiritual growth. Here, in this gentle introduction, Mary Earle gives thought-provoking insights into the teachings of the desert mothers and provides a series of creative and practical exercises to enrich and deepen your spiritual life.

Discussions have been taking place between Roman Catholics and Anglicans, in the past 40 years. Since 2000 Bishops from both churches have established a new body "to promote our relationship by seeking to translate our manifest agreement in faith into common life and mission." This is quite different from the theological discussions among experts, known as ARCIC. This statement is intended to foster discussion and reflection; it is also a call to action, based upon 'an honest appraisal of what has been achieved in our dialogue.'

In "Sharing the Blessing", Kathy Galloway offers a reflection on the spirituality and practice of working for justice and overcoming poverty, both local and global. As people of faith, we are called to speak out against all which distorts or diminishes the image of God in human beings. Yet working for global justice requires patience and persistence: change is slow, difficult and often costly."Sharing the Blessing" is about how you can be part of that change. It will encourage you to think spiritually and creatively around issues of economics, globalization and migration. By putting a human face on huge social problems, which can so easily seem abstract and distant, you can more easily connect these issues with your faith. Here you will find practical suggestions and spiritual guidance that will help you to make a real difference to those suffering from injustice and poverty.

The story of King David, his childhood, his battle with the Philistines, his women, and the tragedy of his son Absalom, is full of excitement, but yet is only a part of his life. His relationship with the Lord God was the key thing, and he danced before the Lord. He was also the first King of Israel, and our story starts at the time when Jerusalem was conquered by Babylon, and its people taken away into captivity. They started to look back at the foundation myths of their history, and the story of David and Solomon, when the kingdom was at the height of its glory, seemed to be just the story to tell. So that is how the collection of stories of David came to be compiled into the books we can read today.

Charles Wesley is known for the astonishing breadth of his hymnody, and many of his Advent and Christmas hymns are regularly sung in churches today. Charles Wesley, the younger brother of John Wesley, was born in December 1707 and this year mark's the tercentenary of his birth. These Advent and Christmas meditations are based on a selection of Wesley's best-loved hymns. For each day, there is a scripture reading, an extract from one of Wesley's hymns and short meditation and a brief prayer. The reflective material on the hymns places Wesley in the rich soil of his Anglican heritage. The book includes mediations for the whole of Advent and for each of the twelve days of Christmas. There are also suggestions for using the meditations in the format of daily morning and evening prayer, either individually or in groups.

The meaning of the Holy Spirit and discernment of its presence in the world have always generated lively debate. But with the emergence of theologies from diverse cultural contexts, particularly in Asia, the age-old debate has assumed a broader character. From her own experience of diverse ecclesial and cultural contexts, Kirsteen Kim is well-equipped to enter into many facets of this conversation. In this wise and exciting book, she shows how perspectives formed by gender, access to power, theology, social location, and culture offer new and rich insights into ancient questions. Highlighting both the vitality and tensions that characterize the present moment, she offers a fresh perspective on the way in which all God's people are moving under the Spirit's power to new wisdom, insights, and power.

Wisdom And Ministry

SPCK Publishing

Wisdom plays a key role in the Hebrew Bible, not least in the books traditionally regarded as wisdom literature, among them Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and some of the psalms. But in the church's use of the Hebrew Bible, wisdom is something of a poor relation compared to the law, the prophets and the psalms, especially given the importance it has for the New Testament's understanding of Christ as the word and wisdom of God. The call to ministry, the author believes, is the call to be, or become, wise ourselves, and to help others on their own journey of discovery as to what this means.
