Der erste Band der Reihe »Kommentar zu frühchristlichen Apologeten« umfasst zwei fragmentarisch überlieferte Schriften: Von einer an Kaiser Hadrian (117-138) gerichteten Verteidigung des christlichen Glaubens durch einen gewissen Quadratus - er gilt als der älteste Apologet - ist nur ein einziges Fragment erhalten. Zehn Fragmente einer »Kerygma Petri« genannten Schrift finden sich bei Clemens von Alexandrien und Origenes. Beide Dokumente gehen wohl auf die erste Hälfte des 2. Jh. zurück. Sie bieten wichtige Einblicke in die Theologiegeschichte dieser Zeit. Der Wiener Neutestamentler Wilhelm Pratscher präsentiert, übersetzt und kommentiert die Fragmente.

"Diese Predigtlehren befasst sich vornehmlich mit den inneren Vorbehalten, die es vielen Zeitgenossen schwer machen, sich auf den christlichen Glauben einzulassen. Was sagen wir Menschen, die aufgrund ihres naturwissenschaftlich-empiristischen Weltbildes Schwierigkeiten mit dem Gottesbegriff haben, religiöse Wahrheitsansprüche nicht akzeptieren oder angesichts des Bösen nicht an einen guten und gerechten Gott und damit an das Evangelium glauben zu können meinen? Aber auch die Predigt des Gesetzes ist durch die Ambivalenz des wissenschaftlich-technologischen Fortschritts, durch Demokratie und Globalisierung vor Aufgaben gestellt, von denen die Reformatoren nichts wissen konnten. -- "Der Autor weist Wege zu einer zeitgemäßen reformatorischen Theologie für die Kanzel, erörtert die Predigt als mediale Kommunikationsform und veranschaulicht eine eigene Praxis durch ausgewählte Predigten."

Based on a connected, relational and multidisciplinary approach (history, ethnography, political science, and theology), Mission and Preaching tackles the notion of mission through the analysis of preaching activities and religious dynamics across Christianity, Islam and Judaism, in the Middle East and North Africa, from the late 19th century until today. The 13 chapters reveal points of contact, exchange, and circulation, considering the MENA region as a central observatory. The volume offers a new chronology of the missionary phenomenon and calls for further cross-cutting approaches to decompartmentalise it, arguing that these approaches constitute useful entry points to shed new light on religious dynamics and social transformations in the MENA region.

In the second half of the fifteenth century, Roberto Caracciolo's preaching touched the most important cities of Italy, and met with wide and resounding success. His sermons were read and diffused throughout Italy and Europe, propelled by the emergence of the printing press industry. This book provides a new and comprehensive study of his life, preaching and writing, replacing outdated resources and adding new and hitherto unknown data. It offers a reference work on a relevant social, intellectual and religious actor of Renaissance Italy and a reading of those times through the life and works of a celebrated preacher.

This book reexamines what we often take for granted: how Scripture is presented to worshipers; how it is heard, especially by those with little experience of the life of the church; Scripture's role in mediating the great narratives of incarnation and redemption at the high points of the year; where Scripture meets people in ritual transition; how the Bible itself provides the language of much public prayer. Contributors also consider how the relationship between Scripture and liturgy is tested by new priorities--the climate crisis, the inclusion and protection of children, the recognition and honoring of those who find themselves on the margins of the church, and the significance of gender and identity in all areas of the church's life. This book does not offer definitive statements. It is an invitation to a wide audience to engage in new conversations with their practice of worship.
