The Reformation, denominationalism, and the unity of the church : why is the church so divided? / Gerald Bray -- Reformation and education : Jan Amos Comenius's "Becoming truly human" and his reformation of human affairs / Jan Hábl -- The artistic legacy of the Refomation and Protestant artists today / Marleen Hengelaar-Rookmaaker -- "With Psalms and hymns" : the Reformation, music, and liturgy / Walter Hilbrands -- The Reformation and historical-critical research in biblical interpretation / Gert Kwakkel -- Justification fatih : are Protestants and Catholics irreconcilably divided? / A.N.S. (Tony) Lee --The Reformation and the questions of authority and truth / Andrew T. B. McGowan -- Guilt, shame, and forgiveness : crucial questions of life in the perspective of Reformation theology / Christoph Raedel -- The Reformation and the Jews / Jean-Paul Rempp -- The Reformation and the challenge of Islam / Thomas Schirrmacher -- Theologia crucis and the persecuted church / Frank-Ole Thoresen -- Freedom of conscience, Reformation, and the advent of secularism / Paul Wells.
Summary: The papers in this volume are less a commemoration of the Reformation than a discussion of its meaning in the era after 2017. What is celebrated in 2017 is not the Reformation as such, but the beginning of the Reformation. It was the dynamics of the ""new"" theology of Luther and Calvin that caused a radical change with global effects. Reformation is not just an historical event but an ongoing movement of renewal and change. The message of the Reformation constantly challenges us to think through positions, actions, attitudes, and programs. This book presents contributions from eleven experts from all over Europe, who deal with their various topics on the conviction that the essence of Luther's theology does not need to be adapted to make it relevant. The papers originated at the 2016 conference of the Fellowship of European Evangelical Theologians, which was held in Lutherstadt Wittenberg.
