Preaching Promise within the Paradoxes of Life
0R450,00Paradoxes have become characteristic of the world we live in ? poverty and privilege, empire and oppression, migration and enclaveseeking, war and peace, justice and injustice, reconciliation and revenge. During the 2016 Societas Homiletica annual conference held in South Africa, these paradoxes served as a rediscovery of the calling of preachers to deliver the promise that lies within life’s contradictions. A divine promise brought forth by the grace of God and the gospel of Christ ? embodied in and through us by the Spirit of Christ. This promise may take many forms and calls for discernment and often interrupts the status quos in surprising, shocking ways. It is a promise that interrupts, in order to comfort.

Prophet from the South
0R375,00Allan Boesak was one of the foremost leaders in the struggle against apartheid. His role in the church in South Africa, internationally and in the United Democratic Front, contributed significantly to the demise of apartheid. He championed the rights of the oppressed and became the representative voice of the poor and disadvantaged. Allan is a gifted preacher, teacher, theologian, writer and an orator blessed with poetic tendencies and a flourishing vocabulary. He has the natural ability to inspire, motivate and stimulate critical and analytical thinking and responses) where globalisation threatens to be a new form of colonisation. He has eloquently championed the cause of economic justice, justice for the earth, gender justice and the struggle against homophobia in the church. His voice is a voice we urgently need to hear again in this era.

Protest at Midnight
0R310,00"Let me say to President Botha: apartheid is doomed! It has been condemned in the councils of God, rejected by every nation on the planet and is no longer believed in by the people who gave it birth. Apartheid is the god that has failed…let not one more sacred life be offered on its blood-stained altar." This is what Bishop Peter Storey preached in 1986 in the darkest hours of black suffering in a South Africa torn apart by racial oppression. Join him as a youthful chaplain to Nelson Mandela on Robben Island, defying armed police entering his pulpit, heading the SA Council of Churches with Bishop Desmond Tutu, leading 25,000 marchers against Johannesburg's secret police headquarters, and confronting Winnie Mandela's wrongs. Storey's ministry was shaped by one simple question: "What does it mean to obey Jesus in apartheid South Africa?" This book tells of his answer and challenges the silence of American churches in the face of nationalism, systemic racism, and right-wing populism in the USA.

Publieke Teologie as Profetiese Teologie?
0R280,00‘Hierdie werk bied On kritiese beskouing van die sosio-ekklesiologiese implikasies van die drierlei amp in die teologie van Karl Barth aan. Die fokus op die munus triplex in Barth se teologie word egter binne On groter vraagstelling geplaas, vandaar die verwysing na publieke teologie en profetiese teologie in die titel. Dit alles gebeur vanuit die bespreking van die diskoerse oor, en trajekte van, publieke teologie en profetiese teologie in Suid-Afrika. Die deeglike werk in hierdie boek lewer nie net On belangrike bydrae ten opsigte van Barth-resepsie in Suid-Afrika nie, maar ook dien dit as pleidooi en argument vir On volgehoue bemoeienis met Barth se teologie vir ons teologiese gesprekke vandag. Dit herinner so bietjie aan Willie Jonker se opmerking dat Barth dalk nie agter ons nie maar moontlik nog voor ons l!’ – Prof. Robert Vosloo, Universiteit Stellenbosch, Suid-Afrika
