Constructing Moral Concepts of God in a Global Age focuses on what people say and think about God, rather than on arguments about God's existence. It advances a theological method, or step-by-step approach to explore and reframe personal convictions about God and the worldviews shaped by those convictions. Since a moral God is more likely to foster a moral life, this method integrates an ethical check to ensure that understandings of God and their associated worldviews are validly moral. The proposed method builds on the work of twentieth-century theologian Gordon Kaufman during the Kantian phase of his work. It anticipates a person-like God who hears prayers, loves without end, and comforts in times of hardship. To accommodate today’s pluralistic and globalized world, the ethical check integrated in the method is a widely collaborative and vetted global ethic, the Parliament of the World’s Religions "Declaration Towards a Global Ethic." This volume of constructive philosophical theology is written for seminary students, educators, clergy, study groups, and anyone interested in delving more deeply and systematically into understandings of God, whether their own or those of others.

How do various concepts of God impact the moral life? Is God ultimately required for goodness? In this edited collection, an international panel of contemporary philosophers and theologians offer new avenues of exploration from a theist perspective for these important questions. The book features several approaches to address these questions. Common themes include philosophical and theological conceptions of God with reference to human morality, particular Trinitarian accounts of God and the resultant ethical implications, and how communities are shaped, promoted, and transformed by accounts of God. Bringing together philosophical and theological insights on the relationship between God and our moral lives, this book will be of keen interest to scholars of the philosophy of religion, particularly those looking at ethics, social justice and morality.

Coming Full Circle: Redefining God in the Age of Reason takes us on a journey that explores how conceptions of God have evolved over 5,000 years of human history. This evolution takes us from the Vedic Rtá, to Plato’s “forms,” Spinoza’s “substance,” and Einstein’s “mind of God.” In the process, we are treated to the wisdom of the ages. Parth Atrey leads us to the incredible realization that our modern definition of God is completely consistent with the definition of God put forth by our most ancient ancestors. We have come full circle. Parth discusses the importance of faith and why it often trumps rationality. He shows why it is important to define God in a way that satisfies both our rational and our emotional needs. Reconciling rationality with deeply held faith and belief brings us full circle again, back to our most ancient religious roots. It also provides the only path to reducing religious conflict, eliminating superstition, and making this world a more peaceful place for all of humanity. Join this fascinating journey through the annals of time and through faith, belief, and rationality, and emerge with a refreshing perspective and perhaps your own personal definition of God! redefining-god.com

We live in an age of scepticism. Our society places such faith in empirical reason, historical progress, and heartfelt emotion that it's easy to wonder: why should anyone believe in Christianity? What role can faith and religion play in our modern lives? In this thoughtful and inspiring book, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller invites sceptics to consider that Christianity is as relevant now as ever. As human beings, we cannot live without meaning, satisfaction, freedom, identity, justice and hope - and Christianity provides us with unsurpassed resources to meet all these needs. Written for both sceptic and believer, Making Sense of God shines a light on the profound value and importance of Christianity in our lives.

Here is Moltmann discussing the questions that matter more than any others for our world: How is it possible to create a world society worth living in? What positive contribution can Christians make in the face of the nuclear threat? What can be done to mobilize concern for the future of the environment and its natural resources? Moltmann provides a new combination of insights from the Bible and from oriental religion as he has come to know it through his work in the Far East to produce some fresh and challenging perspectives on the primary global issues of our time.

The place of religion in society has changed profoundly in the last few centuries, particularly in the West.

State Crime in the Global Age brings together original writings from leading scholars in the field to explore the many ways that the use and abuse of state power results in grave social harms that outweigh, by far, the consequences of ordinary street crime. The topics covered include the crimes of empire, illegal war, the bombing of civilians, state sanctioned torture, state sacrifice of human lives, and judicial wrongdoing. The book breaks new ground through its examination of the ways globalization has intensified potentials for state crime, as well as bringing novel theoretical understandings of the state to the study of state crime, and exploring strategies for confronting state crime. This book, while containing much that is of interest to scholars of state crime, is designed to be accessible to students and others who are concerned with the ways individuals, social groups, and whole nations are victimized by the misuse of state power.

In the spirit of communitarianism and dialogue between civilizations, this ambitious book seeks a political philosophy where a diversity of world-views can meet. The main objective of the book is to propose a theoretical basis for convergence and to explain how it can be built. After considering key positions in the current debate on political theory, the author offers a theoretical solution to the seeming impossibility of universalizing an ethics of caring and responsibility.
