Global Dictionary of Theology: A Resource for the Worldwide Church (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781844743506)

The first major theological dictionary to explore the global range and varieties of theology. Nearly 250 articles by over 100 international contributors. Edited by acknowledged experts in global theology. Acknowledges the authority of Scripture and the Christian tradition. Articles reflect a rich diversity of contexts and a variety of styles and perspectives. Explores the local and global theological fruit of the inculturation of the gospel. This volume is inspired by the shift of the centre of Christianity from the West to the global South, and reflects the increase in two-way traffic between these two sectors, in an age of unprecedented global awareness.
