Russell Moore explora o relacionamento da igreja evangélica de seu país com a sociedade e seus valores. É provável que o leitor brasileiro não se surpreenda ao perceber que há uma intersecção entre o cenário norte-americano e o contexto brasileiro atual, razão pela qual a Editora Mundo Cristão julga importante a publicação desta obra.No contexto norte-americano, a igreja evangélica vem nitidamente perdendo relevância, e, conforme aponta Moore, muitos dos esforços de engajamento político e cultural têm sido desastrosos para a missão da igreja. Em contrapartida, Moore reconhece que um cristianismo que simplesmente se amolde aos comportamentos e valores representativos da cultura de uma época também tende a morrer. O que fazer?O autor defende que a missão da igreja não tolera um cristianismo que se isole da sociedade. A igreja é, por definição, missionária e por isso precisa buscar formas de conectar-se com os de fora de sua bolha. Em busca da proclamação do reino, abre-se uma oportunidade histórica de máxima relevância: a reconciliação de uma nação consigo mesma e com o Criador. Esta obra, portanto, explora cada aspecto da intrincada relação entre a igreja e a sociedade, apontando alternativas para que o Corpo de Cristo seja relevante à medida que se atém ao verdadeiro evangelho.
The USS Hornet CV-12 was launched in 1943 and served with distinction during the Second World War in the Pacific. After various modifications, she was active during the Cold War and the Vietnam War. Following this, she joined the Apollo Program and recovered astronauts from the Apollo 11 and 12 moon missions. After being decommissioned for the final time, she rested for decades in the mothball fleet and was destined for the scrapyard until saved and turned into a floating museum. Today, eighty years after construction began on her, USS Hornet CV-12 is still serving the country with distinction, this time as an educational venue and community asset. USS Hornet CV-12: Service in War and Peace tells the story of this ship from design and construction to service in times of war and peace. The design was a pre-war standard and before any lessons from the Second World War could be incorporated, the ship and its crew were able to meet every challenge.
In this scholarly work, Russell D. Moore relates the history leading up to the new "Kingdom" consensus among evangelicals from the time theologian Carl F. H. Henry called for it fifty years ago. He examines how this consensus offers a renewed theological foundation for evangelical engagement in the social and political realms.While evangelical scholars and pastors will be interested in this sharp, insightful book, all evangelicals interested in public policy will find it useful in discovering how this new Kingdom perspective works out in the public square.
The contributors to this issue of Plough Quarterly focus on what it means to bear witness to the gospel. Peggy Gish reports on the church¿s response to Boko Haram in Nigeria, where thousands of Christians have been killed. But in addition to witnesses who die for their faith, there are those who live for it, such as the families of those who died in Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. And in the wake of the US Supreme Court¿s move to redefine marriage, we can¿t talk about Christian witness without considering marriage and sexuality. With insights from Russell Moore, N. T. Wright, Amy Carmichael, Pope Francis, George Fox, Ivan Illich, Julia Chaney-Moss, Nathaniel Peters, Channah Ben-Eliezer, Chico Fajardo-Heflin, Les Isaac, Paul Sanders, and Robert Paeglow, this issue is sure to stimulate reflection and discussion. And as if that weren¿t enough, you also get world-class art by Caravaggio, August Macke, Eric Drooker, Denis Barsukov, Pablo Picasso, George Tooker, Lucas Cranach the Elder, Janice Earley, John Singer Sargent, Paul Sanders, Paul Klee, Ghislaine Howard, and others.Plough Quarterly features stories, ideas, and culture for people eager to put their faith into action. Each issue brings you in-depth articles, interviews, poetry, book reviews, and art to help you put Jesus¿ message into practice and find common cause with others.
In this practical book, Moore highlights the importance of adoption for all Christians, encouraging readers to lead the way in adoption and orphan advocacy out of our identity as adopted children of God.
