Reseña del libro "Re-Envisioning Transformation (en Inglés)"
In today's church, use of the term transformation has become commonplace. Various perspectives are offered on what a Christian view of transformation is--and on how it may be achieved. These often-conflicting views suggest an ecclesial landscape characterized by pluralism, division, fragmentation, confusion, relativism, individualism, pragmatism, and subjectivism. Despite the current interest in transformational theology, the absence of a common, coherent, and integrated vision (and the lack of transformation) is often accepted and affirmed. Re-Envisioning Transformation looks at the possibility of moving toward a vision of transformational theology that is cohesive, unified, broad, effectual, and distinctly Christian. In this book, the contributions of two radically different""theologians of the Christian life"" are examined. This provides the basis from which to develop a comprehensive and integrated framework of transformational theology--pointing God's people toward the need to express and live out a distinctly Christian vision. ""David Scott accurately diagnoses the fragmented nature of the theology of Christian formation. His carefully researched corrective offers this creative vision that integrates the contemporary wisdom of J. I. Packer with the ancient knowledge of Maximus Confessor. Blending the centrality of union with Christ with the dynamic participation of perichoresis Scott fashions a model that can transform believers into the image of Christ that reflects his exalted glory. I highly recommend this stimulating study!"" --Tom Schwanda, Associate Professor of Christian Formation and Ministry, Wheaton College David C. Scott holds a PhD from the University of Wales, Trinity St David. He lives in London, England.
