Stephen J. Hamilton attempts to create a "portrait" of "born-again" Christianity by providing a general introduction to the doctrine of regeneration, including its development in modernity, as well as short exegeses of relevant scriptural texts, followed by a close reading of four theologians – Philipp Jakob Spener, Jonathan Edwards, Friedrich D.E. Schleiermacher, and Charles G. Finney – who all associate the doctrine of regeneration with an experience of presence in the individual believer. In light of these analyses, he then traces a general theological structure of the "born-again" understanding of regeneration, including a catalogue of theological issues over which there is significant disagreement, in order to create a topography of "born-again" theologies. In the final section, he applies these results to contemporary conversion narratives of non-theologians. It is in such conversion narratives, the author argues, that theologians can discover an implicit, "lived" theology that reveals how doctrines are perceived and put into practice among Christians. Accordingly, this is to be understood as the result of the creative reciprocity between (often tacit) theological convictions and the experiences of the Christian life. The final chapter, as a coda to the entire work, offers some concluding reflections on the present cultural and political situation in the USA pertaining to "born-again" Christianity and argues against any oversimplifications of the relationship between "born-again" theologies, culture, and politics.

A leading historian of evangelicalism offers a concise history of evangelicals and how they became who they are today Evangelicalism is arguably America's most controversial religious movement. Nonevangelical people who follow the news may have a variety of impressions about what "evangelical" means. But one certain association they make with evangelicals is white Republicans. Many may recall that 81 percent of self-described white evangelicals voted for Donald Trump, and they may well wonder at the seeming hypocrisy of doing so. In this illuminating book, Thomas Kidd draws on his expertise in American religious history to retrace the arc of this spiritual movement, illustrating just how historically peculiar that political and ethnic definition (white Republican) of evangelicals is. He examines distortions in the public understanding of evangelicals, and shows how a group of "Republican insider evangelicals" aided the politicization of the movement. This book will be a must-read for those trying to better understand the shifting religious and political landscape of America today.

Taking its cue from contemporary western debates on presence in the social sciences and the humanities, this volume focuses on 'presence' both as everyday experience and as an experience of intense moments. It raises questions about diverse social configurations of presence as well as about the specific cultural repertoires which encode, articulate, and shape discourses of presence. The contributions take as a premise that phenomena of presence are connected to particular forms of knowledge. Especially tacit knowledge (pre)determines experiences of individual and collective presence and becomes tangible in moments of presence or presentification.

Jonathan Edwards (1703–58) is considered one of the greatest theologians and philosophers of evangelicalism, who also served as a pastor, missionary, and revival leader. By underscoring “Regeneration, Revival, and Creation” in Edwards’s thought, this volume uniquely captures the need to delve into Edwards’s theological and philosophical rationale for the revivals, alongside key questions concerning the historical context and Edwards’s standing in his own tradition. This book gathers the work of scholars working in the areas of historical, systematic, and analytic theology, church history, psychology, and biology. It contains papers presented at the inaugural conference of the Jonathan Edwards Center at Gateway Seminary (JEC West). Bringing together some of the leading authorities as well as up-and-coming Edwards scholars working today, this collection advances the questions of regeneration, revival, and creation in fresh new ways. With contributions from: Adriaan Neele, Douglas Sweeney, Chris Woznicki, Obbie Tyler Todd, Peter Jung, Michael Haykin, Ryan J. Martin, Mark Rogers, Allen Yeh, Oliver Crisp, Walter Schultz, John Shouse, Rob Boss, Lisanne Winslow, and Robert Caldwell.

Are you surprised by Trump's success with the evangelical Church? Do you have family members obsessed with him? Are you weary of the direction the Christian Church is taking in our society? Do you have doubts about your faith? Jose Medina was a devout Evangelical Christian for more than three decades. Shortly after arriving to pursue graduate studies in the United States, Jose became an Evangelical. This book is a personal account of his experiences as a member of the Southern Baptist church. He lived an unassuming church life until the appearance of Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential elections. Evangelicals' unconditional support for Trump, a man representing everything his Church stood against, pushed Jose to deconstruct his Christian beliefs. After not getting satisfactory answers from men and books he trusted, including the Bible, he left his friends, the Church, and the Christian faith. Writing this book was Jose's most challenging spiritual journey, but it provided him with a path forward free of mystical dogmas. If you are on the edge of what Christianity is about, this book will give you some first-hand insights into how to deal with it.

Ein neues Erlebnis von Kirche – das verspricht die freikirchliche Gemeindegründungsbewegung »International Christian Fellowship« (ICF). Ihre Gemeinden bieten einen Mix aus konservativen Inhalten und progressivem Design. Damit stoßen sie vor allem bei jungen Menschen auf Resonanz. Die Studie untersucht mithilfe von qualitativen und quantitativen Methoden das ICF im Deutschland. Sie beantwortet die Frage nach dem Profil, der Gestalt und dem Handeln des ICF und liefert empirische Erkenntnisse über die Angehörigen des ICF und deren Motivation, sich einer Gemeinde des ICF anzuschließen. Darüber hinaus zeigt sie auf, wie sich Gemeinden des ICF in die bestehende Kirchenlandschaft einfügen und welche Faktoren die Dynamik zwischen Gemeinden des ICF und anderen Gemeinden in der Region beeinflussen.

Den biblischen Traditionen nach verheißt Gott seine Gegenwart auf unterschiedliche Weise. Die Frage nach diesen lebendigen Gegenwarten Gottes fordert und ermöglicht ein produktives Gespräch zwischen biblisch-theologischen, systematisch-theologischen, ethischen, historischen und sozial- und medienwissenschaftlichen Perspektiven. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes nehmen dieses Gespräch auf und entwickeln daraus Impulse für die Theologie, die sozialtheoretische Reflexion von Religion und nicht zuletzt die christliche und kirchliche Praxis. Fragen der Medialisierung und Verkörperung, aber auch der Entzogenheit und Fraglichkeit göttlicher Präsenz kommen dabei ebenso in den Blick wie Wahrnehmungen göttlicher Gegenwart im christlichen Glaubensleben oder im diakonischen Handeln. Der Band ist Günter Thomas zum 60. Geburtstag gewidmet und vereint Beiträge von Autorinnen und Autoren aus Deutschland, den USA, Großbritannien, den Niederlanden, Dänemark, der VR China, Taiwan, Südafrika, der Schweiz und Israel. According to biblical traditions, the presence of God is promised in different ways. Inquiring into these living presences of God demands and enables a productive conversation of biblical-theological, sytematic-theological, ethical, and historical perspectives as well as social theory and media studies. The contributions to this volume take up this conversation and thus develop impulses for theological thought, the interdisciplinary reflection of religion and the praxis of Christian life and the Christian church. Thereby, the medialisation and the embodiment of divine presence as well as its hiddenness or questionability come into focus, and different traditional and formative perceptions of divine presence in the life of faith or in diaconical work are analysed. In honor of Günter Thomas' 60th birthday this volume encompasses contributions by authors from Germany, the USA, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Denmark, the People's Republic of China, Taiwan, South Africa, Switzerland, and Israel.
