Elaine Graham\'s Transforming Practice Pastoral Theology in an Age of Uncertainty
Evaluation of Elaine L. Graham's Transforming Practice: Pastoral Theology in an Age of Uncertainty
In Transforming Practice: Pastoral Theology in an Age of Uncertainty, Elaine L. Graham addresses Traditional, Postmodern, Liberation and Feminist perspectives on Theology and ultimately on Pastoral Theology. In order to address these perspectives, Graham traces the historical development of each, current theological realities, and prospective "horizons." The result is an extensive review of the Pastoral Theolog(y)(ies) of the Church and its faith communit(y)(ies), viewed very strongly through the feminist pastoral perspective.
Heart of Paul\'s Theology of Ephesians
The theology of Paul is expressed in Ephesians, in which the speaker also includes Christian moral coes. Paul establishes the body of the Church as the manifestation of Christ. This six page paper explores multiple dimensions of Ephesians, treating the theological analysis as an exegesis as well, because it is impossible to analyze the text out of context.
