Globalization and the Mission of the Church: Ecclesiological Investigations
Autor Dr Neil J. Ormerod, Dr Shane Cliftonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 oct 2011
Various
social,
political,
economic
and
cultural
commentators
are
presently
arguing
that
human
history
is
reaching
a
decisive
stage
in
its
development,
a
stage
marked
by
increased
interconnection
between
peoples,
the
compression
of
space
and
time,
a
sharing
of
ideas
at
unprecedented
levels,
global
trade
and
finance,
and
so
on.
The
shorthand
word
used
to
encompass
these
phenomena
is
"globalization".
Some
embrace
it,
others
reject
it,
while
still
others
dispute
its
existence.
But
with
the
abundance
of
literature
and
debate
that
it
generates,
the
topic
cannot
be
ignored.
From
its
inception
in
the
missionary
mandate
of
Jesus
(Matthew
28),
Christianity
has
had
a
global
dimension
to
its
mission.
Christianity
is
not
a
spectator
to
globalization
but
one
of
its
agents,
one
of
the
forces
at
work
which
have
extended
interconnection
between
peoples,
shared
ideas
and
promoted
social,
political
and
cultural
links.
The
purpose
of
the
present
work
is
not
to
provide
a
complete
response
to
the
question
of
the
mission
of
the
church
in
a
globalizing
world,
but
to
establish
a
framework
within
which
answers
may
be
sought.
Grounded
in
the
writings
of
Bernard
Lonergan
and
Robert
Doran,
it
develops
a
theology
of
history
and
addresses
the
churches
response
to
the
impact
of
globalization
on
vital,
social,
cultural,
personal
and
religious
values.
The
project
brings
together
the
perspectives
of
Catholicism
and
Pentecostalism,
the
former
providing
a
depth
of
wisdom
and
tradition,
the
latter
drawing
on
the
insight
of
a
newly
emerging
movement
that
has
taken
root
in
every
continent
with
remarkable
energy
and
enthusiasm.

Recenzii
'Overall,
[the
authors]
have
shown
us
one
way
that
he
church
ought
to
address
and
respond
to
the
impact
of
the
globalization
on
the
vital,
social,
cultural,
and
personal
and
religious
virtues
of
Christianity.
In
doing
this,
they
weaved
together
the
narratives
of
Christian's
historical
self-understanding
and
the
logic
and
dynamics
of
globalization
and
give
us
a
fresh
perspective
on
the
corporate
mission
of
the
Church
in
a
globalizing
world.'
'There are at least three broad audiences that need to read and will glean much from this book: those interested in matters at the interface of religion and globalization will find theoretically sophisticated and analytically rich explorations of the challenges globalization poses to religious communities in general and to Christianity in particular; those interested in Christian theology of mission and in the doctrine of the church (ecclesiology) will be motivated to rethink the church's corporate mission in an age of globalization; and those interested in ecumenical ecclesiology will enter into a Roman Catholic (Ormerod) and Pentecostal (Clifton) dialogue on the nature and mission of the church in the public square of the 21st century. This is a visionary book from two theologians deeply rooted in but also at the vanguard of their respective traditions!' - Amos Yong, Regent University School of Divinity, Virginia Beach, VA, USA
'The Christian Church is the most global religious institution in the world. To rethink its mission in light of globalization is an imperative for our time. By focusing on its two most salient global forms--Roman Catholicism and Pentecostal faith--Neil Ormerod and Shane Clifton have done us an invaluable service by interweaving Christianity's historical self-understanding with the complexities of globalization in all its forms. No thinking about where the Church should be today will be complete without taking into account what they have presented in this book.' - Robert Schreiter, Catholic Theological Union, Chicago, IL, USA
'Globalization and the Mission of the Church' stands out as a uniquely penetrating theological contribution to questions surrounding the role of the Church in terms of values that speak to the twenty first century context. Ormerod and Clifton manage to bring a refreshingly creative perspective that not only provides a new understanding of the meaning of globalization but at the same time provides sorely needed theological guidance for carrying out the mission of the Church in a relevant way. There's nothing around quite like it. Bravo for this enriching experience!' - Gasper LoBiondo, SJ, Director, Woodstock Theological Center, Georgetown University, Washington, DC, USA
