It presents a theological methodology, a step-by-step approach, designed to facilitate the exploration and reevaluation of personal convictions about God and the worldviews shaped by those convictions. By emphasizing the role of a moral God in fostering a moral life, this method incorporates an ethical check to ensure that understandings of God and their associated worldviews are validly moral.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing upon the rich insights of twentieth-century theologian Gordon Kaufman during the Kantian phase of his work, the proposed method envisions a God who embodies qualities akin to a person, such as hearing prayers, expressing boundless love, and providing solace during times of hardship. In order to adapt to the diverse and interconnected world of today, the ethical check integrated into the method takes the form of a widely collaborative and vetted global ethic, the Parliament of the Worlds Religions Declaration Towards a Global Ethic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume of constructive philosophical theology is meticulously crafted for seminary students, educators, clergy, study groups, and individuals with a deep interest in delving into profound understandings of God, whether they originate from personal beliefs or those of others. It serves as a valuable resource for those seeking to expand their theological horizons and engage in meaningful dialogue about the nature of God and its implications for our lives and the world we inhabit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 560g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032247540\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Myriam Renaud","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104018952442,"sku":"9781032247540","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1659093928698_book.jpg?v=1659344383","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/constructing-moral-concepts-of-god-in-a-global-age-9781032247540","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
